Settings [↑]

Open (or create) your settings.json in your .vscode subfolder of your workspace.

Add a deploy section:

{
    "deploy": {
    }
}

Packages [↑]

A package is a description of files of your workspace that should be deployed.

Add the subsection packages and add one or more entry:

{
    "deploy": {
        "packages": [
            {
                "name": "Version 2.3.4",
                "description": "Package version 2.3.4",
                "files": [
                    "**/*.php",
                    "/*.json"
                ],
                "exclude": [
                    "tests/**"
                ],
                "deployOnSave": true
            }
        ]
    }
}

Targets [↑]

A target describes where a file or package should be transfered to.

Add the subsection targets and add one or more entry:

        "targets": [
