You can import a VS Code profile if you first export it to github then import it as a link.

That will also give you the little face icon at the bottom (usual location) through which you can treat your integration logins. There is also “Turn on Cloud Changes” (I don’t suggest it to be used as it messed up my profiles).

What it lacks is the normal Sync.  
Any chance we get that so that we could sync our other workstations with ProjectIDX and thus have a simple way of managing profiles?

This would be nice. Coming from GitHub Codespaces, not syncing your settings on IDX is really annoying.

Thanks for letting us know about this! Persisting workspace settings across all of your workspaces is high on our list of things to tackle shortly. Let me know if there is anything else in this area that we should explore as well.

True that, I’d love it if idx was syncing settings.

Another annoying thing is, uploading stuff like profiles sucks, as you can’t just `Show local` in the upload thingy, you either do it this way or you upload it some otherway.

We are planning to fix this in the near future!

Good to know! We’ll look into prioritizing this in the near future as well.

Also if we have something “port forwarding” which allow us sharing the link to to people who can easily experience the website, we have this is in codespace

Yep - that is something we are working on as well. Stay tuned.
