I almost have a successful custom build for my project however I’m not seeing a straightforward way to copy presets and playlists over to another ESP32. Is there a way to somehow include presets and playlists in my VS Code / platformio build? The ultimate goal would be to plug in a blank ESP32, click upload, and end up the right data pin, the right number of LEDs, and a good selection of preset looks that auto-play.

You can also backup and restore from one to many.

Yeah , I think wled internal backup and restore process for presets.json and cfg.json is good , might be OP is not aware of that but I see the words VS code and blank ESP32
