⚙️ VS Code Profiles – Fullstack Edition

“Your editor should think like you — whether you’re designing the UI or architecting the API.”

---

🧭 Why This Exists

Most developers use a single VS Code setup for everything — frontend, backend, and fullstack. But different layers of a system demand different modes of thinking and different editor behaviors.

This collection of profiles separates those worlds while keeping them seamlessly unified. Each profile is handcrafted to match real production workflows — minimal, intelligent, and consistent.

• 🧠 Frontend — Creativity and flow for React, TypeScript, and TailwindCSS.
• ⚙️ Backend — Logic and structure for NestJS, PostgreSQL, and REST APIs.
• 🌍 Fullstack — Unified control for developers who move across both effortlessly.

🛠 How It Works

Each profile defines:

• Custom editor settings for that environment
• Recommended extensions for performance and accuracy
• Prettier + ESLint alignment for consistent formatting
• IntelliSense tuning for smoother autocompletion
• Minimal UI for focus and clarity

Switch instantly between contexts:

1. Open VS Code → ⚙️ → Profiles → Import Profile from File System
2. Choose frontend, backend, or fullstack based on your work
3. Restart VS Code (optional but recommended)

No reconfiguration. No broken extensions. Just plug and play.

💡 What You Get

✅ Unified Prettier + ESLint setup across all profiles ✅ Lightweight and lag-free environment ✅ Seamless navigation between frontend and backend code ✅ Developer flow optimized for production-grade projects ✅ Clean diffs, consistent commits, and minimal distractions

🪄 Philosophy

“Code faster by thinking less about configuration.”

This is not just about themes or fonts — it’s about mental clarity. When your environment adapts to your context, you stay in flow longer, build cleaner, and debug faster.

Whether you’re designing a React UI or deploying a NestJS API — your editor should evolve with you.
