Description
Using FlowLauncher on different machines (laptop and desktop).
I noticed that keeping synchronized addons (install, update, set properties (priority)) between different computers is an incredible time-consuming task, above all if you have a lot of addons installed.
Therefore, having JSON file would come in handy: export it from one machine and import into another.
The process should be:
- put in on ( C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\FlowLauncher\Plugins) path;
- let Flowlauncher parse it comparing local file addons with imported file addons; if an extension is not installed or not up-to-date or dismissed, it would simple download/remove it automatically, without any manual action needed by user.
Anything like that available right now?
