Open Einstellungen from the top-right area. Settings apply across all projects unless a project has its own selection.
An editor entry contains a display name and a command template.
Examples:
code "{projectPath}"
cursor "{projectPath}"
idea "{projectPath}"
webstorm "{projectPath}"
Available placeholders:
{projectPath}
{projectName}
Keep the project path in quotes so folders containing spaces work.
A project uses its preferred editor for the main open button. Changing a global editor command affects every project assigned to that editor.
Leave the custom terminal command empty to use Code Deck's platform-specific default. Set a command when you use a different terminal or need custom arguments.
The terminal is opened with the project directory as its starting folder where supported.
This directory is used as the initial location for project creation, folder selection and scanning. It is only a convenience setting; projects may still be stored elsewhere.
Under Eigene Projektvorlagen, choose a local folder and save it as a template.
Use templates for files you want in many new projects, for example:
- linting configuration
- standard folders
- a company-specific README outline
- package scripts
- shared development settings
Do not include secrets, installed dependencies or generated build output.
Choose Deutsch or English under Settings → Interface → Language. The interface changes immediately and the selection is stored locally with the rest of the Code Deck settings.
Choose light, dark or system theme. The selection is saved locally.
Export creates a JSON backup containing Code Deck configuration such as projects, commands, editors, workspaces and settings.
Import replaces or merges configuration according to the confirmation shown in the app. Review imported commands before running them. Code Deck does not automatically execute commands from an imported file.
Use the onboarding option to open the first-run guide again. This is useful after reinstalling an IDE or when setting up Code Deck on another machine.
