Sharing Arduino IDE sketches between users is pretty handicapped right now, because the sketch.yaml project file isn't yet supported in the IDE, and there is no way to share the settings that are manually configured in the "Tools" menus. This is in spite of the fact that I've already configured the sketchbook location to the root of my GitHub repository's sandbox.
The first MVP behavior wouldn't even need to support multiple profiles or provide any additional user interface. It could be as simple as:
If the sketch .ino has a sketch.yaml file next to it, and
if the sketch.yaml explicitly defines a default profile, then
load & save all platform properties to/from the default profile
load & save all board properties to/from the default profile's FQBN
load & save all library installations to/from the default profile
Describe the current behavior
The current behavior is that the user's configuration of the board and related properties that could be defined in the sketch.yaml project file are stored in some "black box" in the IDE's configuration that cannot be seen or shared.
