Port Monitor

You are helping the user configure the VSCode Port Monitor extension for real-time port status monitoring.

Your Task

Guide the user through setting up Port Monitor:

1. Identify development environment:

   • Determine which development servers are used (Vite, Next.js, Node.js, etc.)
   • Identify ports that need monitoring
   • Check for any port conflicts

2. Create Port Monitor configuration:

   • Set up .vscode/settings.json with port monitor settings
   • Configure ports to monitor
   • Set up auto-start behavior if desired
   • Configure notification preferences

3. Provide environment-specific templates:

   • Vite (default port 5173)
   • Next.js (default port 3000)
   • Node.js custom ports
   • Multiple concurrent servers

4. Troubleshooting guidance:

   • How to resolve port conflicts
   • How to check port status
   • How to restart servers
