Feat : Add User Profile/Settings Page

[imSubhro]

✨ Feature Description

Add a dedicated User Profile and Settings page where users can manage their personal information, preferences and account settings.

🤔 Problem It Solves

CodeSync currently has no Settings or Profile page. Once a user creates an account there is no way to update their display name, avatar, password or any preferences. For a collaborative code editing tool where identity matters, this is a significant gap that makes the platform feel unfinished.

💡 Proposed Solution

• Add a /profile or /settings route accessible from the user avatar or navbar.
• Profile Section — display and allow editing of name, username, avatar and email.
• Account Section — allow password change and account deletion.
• Preferences Section — editor font size, key bindings, default language.
• Keep the design consistent with the existing CodeSync UI.
• Ensure the page is fully responsive.

✅ Acceptance Criteria

• Settings/Profile route created and linked from navbar.
• User can update name, avatar and email.
• Password change functionality works.
• Editor preferences are configurable and persisted.
• Fully responsive on all screen sizes.

Hi @alokkksharmaa 👋

I'd love to work on this under GSSoC! 🚀

I noticed CodeSync has no profile or settings page at all. Once you're logged in there's nowhere to update your name, avatar, password or any editor preferences. For a collaborative coding tool where users work together and identity is visible to others, this feels like one of the most important missing pieces.

My plan is to create a clean settings page with sections for profile management, account settings and editor preferences. I'll make it accessible from the navbar and keep the design fully consistent with the existing CodeSync UI. The editor preferences will be persisted so they're remembered across sessions. Could you please assign this to me? 😊

Hi @alokkksharmaa,

I’d like to work on this issue under GSSoC’26.

I reviewed the feature requirements and this looks like a meaningful enhancement for CodeSync. My plan is to:

• Create a dedicated profile/settings page accessible from the navbar/avatar menu
• Add profile management features (name, avatar, email updates)
• Implement account settings like password update
• Add editor preferences such as theme/settings persistence
• Ensure the UI remains responsive and consistent with the existing design

I’ll keep the implementation modular and make sure preferences persist properly across sessions.

Please assign this issue to me if it’s available.
Thanks!
