Description

The VS Code extension already got the option to pass a default config file, if no config file is provided in the project itself. We could do the same in two ways:

  1. we have the Unibeautify config file in the user root ~/.unibeautifyrc.json
  2. we use the ~/.unibeautifrc.json file to set CLI options e.g.:
{
  "defaultConfig": "/Users/marvinheilemann/Documents/Configs/.unibeautifyrc.json"
}

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the current config loading mechanism and add support for reading a configuration file from the user's home directory (~/.unibeautifyrc.json) with fallback to the project config.
