Description

I appreciate the author's hard work in developing and open-sourcing such a great application.

I've noticed that after adding a lot of configurations, if my VPS server experiences issues and the system resets, all of my configurations are lost.

Has anyone considered adding a configuration backup and restore function, or export and import functionality? This way, I can take precautionary backups and avoid having to reconfigure everything after losing it.**
