This file allows developers to establish a seamless connection between their local workspace and a <a href=\"..\/Remote-Server\/\">Remote Server<\/a>, facilitating real-time file synchronization and <a href=\"..\/Deployment\/\">Deployment<\/a> workflows.<\/p><p>The configuration is written in <a href=\"..\/JSON\/\">JSON<\/a> format and typically includes essential connection details such as the <code>host<\/code>, <code>username<\/code>, <code>protocol<\/code> (usually <a href=\"..\/SFTP\/\">SFTP<\/a> or <a href=\"..\/FTP\/\">FTP<\/a>), and the <code>remotePath<\/code> where files should be uploaded. One of the most utilized features defined in this file is <code>uploadOnSave<\/code>, which triggers an automatic upload whenever a developer saves a file locally. Security is often handled via <a href=\"..\/SSH-Keys\/\">SSH-Keys<\/a> or password-based authentication. Detailed usage instructions and community-maintained forks can be found on the <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/liximomo\/vscode-sftp\">original GitHub repository<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/marketplace.visualstudio.com\/items?itemName=liximomo.sftp\">Visual Studio Marketplace<\/a>.<\/p><p>To maintain performance and avoid unnecessary data transfer, the <code>ignore<\/code> property is used to exclude specific patterns, such as <a href=\"..\/Git\/\">Git<\/a> metadata or temporary build files. This ensures that the <a href=\"..\/Development-Environment\/\">Development-Environment<\/a> remains clean and synchronized only with necessary source code. Users can also define multiple profiles within the configuration to manage different environments like staging and production.<\/p><ul><li><a href=\"..\/SSH-Configuration\/\">SSH-Configuration<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"..\/Remote-Development\/\">Remote-Development<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"..\/File-Transfer-Protocol\/\">File-Transfer-Protocol<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"..\/Workspace-Settings\/\">Workspace-Settings<\/a><\/li><\/ul>",
