# Visual Studio Code Customization :alien:
This repository offers an automatic install script for **Visual Studio Code** customization! :fire:
This Visual Studio Code setup includes a fully IDE for Web development with Node.js.
### Requirements

winget install SQLite.SQLite
```

SQLite3 is pre-installed on macOS. If needed, you can update it via Homebrew:
```shell
brew install sqlite3
```

sudo apt-get install sqlite3
# Fedora/RHEL
sudo dnf install sqlite
# Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S sqlite
```
### Installation Guide
##### Mac OS X
```shell
# Clone repository
$ git clone https://github.com/Teddy95/vscode-customization.git
# Change directory
$ cd vscode-customization
# Execute install.sh
$ ./install.sh
```

[Included extensions](./vscode/extensions-list.txt)
### Included configuration files
##### Configuration files for Visual Studio Code
⇒ [Show files](https://github.com/Teddy95/vscode-customization/tree/master/vscode)
**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.
