Many aspects of the User Interface and behavior can be customized for the preferences of each user.

The preferences are generally stored in local encrypted storage. Some are stored in the .hackolade folder so they can be shared using Git, as detailed here.

Preferences can be backed up to be exported, so they can be moved to another computer, as explained in this page.
