WebStorm

webstorm

The JavaScript and TypeScript IDE.

WebStorm already syncs these files itself. Two writers on one file fight, and the tool wins — it holds the file open and rewrites it from its own copy. Leave these to WebStorm, or turn its own sync off before handing them to anything else. Otty lists this tool like any other and leaves it switched off, and asks before you turn it on.

Only what the catalog names. A directory that syncs brings everything inside it except what is listed as excluded here.

# — the configuration directory is

# %APPDATA%\JetBrains\WebStorm<version> on Windows,

# ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/WebStorm<version> on macOS and

# ~/.config/JetBrains/WebStorm<version> on Linux — one directory under the

# three names of `[appData]`, so it is written once and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is

# followed on Linux. The version is part of the directory name, hence the

# glob. Caches (~/Library/Caches, ~/.cache, %LOCALAPPDATA%) and logs

# (~/Library/Logs) sit outside this tree and never come along.

# Same page: on Windows and macOS the plugins directory is `plugins` inside the

# configuration directory, while on Linux it is elsewhere entirely

# (~/.local/share/JetBrains/WebStorm<version>, outside everything listed here).

# Downloaded plugin jars are installs, not settings, and the carve-out follows

# the base directory, so it holds however a machine resolves it.

# — the IDE keeps passwords in the native keychain by default, but the "In

# KeePass" option stores them in the database file c.kdbx inside this same

# configuration directory. Whenever it exists it is the credential store. It

# sits inside a directory `paths` already covers, so a consumer has to let

# secret win over the directory.

# JetBrains' bundled Settings Sync plugin already carries these through a

# No machine_lines: the settings under options/, keymaps/, colors/ and

# codestyles/ are the preferences a developer wants on every machine, and

# picking machine-local keys out of the IDE's XML would be guesswork.

Opens otty://sync/add/webstorm. Otty ships with this catalog, so the link only has to name the tool — nothing is downloaded.

Every one of these keeps the credential file out.
