What Is Dropfox ?

Dropfox supports you to share a profile across different environments by using tools such as Dropbox. Dropfox enables you to use so-called "extended user.js" which can include environment variables and regular Javascript codes. That enables you to change some preferences, such as a path of a cache folder or an external editor so on, to new ones suitable for each OS environment such as Windows, Linux or Mac.
