Configuration files for Visual Studio Code

⇒ Show files

Backed up files:

• settings.json - VS Code settings and preferences
• extensions-list.txt - List of installed extensions
• activity-bar.json - Activity Bar configuration (visible/hidden items and order)

Note: The Activity Bar configuration is extracted from VS Code's SQLite database (state.vscdb) using the workbench.activity.pinnedViewlets2 key. This ensures only the Activity Bar settings are backed up, avoiding machine-specific data.
