Sync workspace across devices

I work both at home and at a studio on TVPaint, and I wish there was a way to automatically sync the workspace between the machines. Every time I create a new tool or action, I need to send it manually to myself and install it each time on the other machine.
thanks

Maybe something like syncthing will help, sync the files to your phone if you have Android then have the phone sync to the studio computer, assuming the network doesn't block it

This would be very useful!
and I would like to add that it would also be very useful if we could share workspaces between different licenses (for example if an intern would like to work from his/her home computer)

I don't have an Android but I see that they have a desktop option - I will try that.

the problem with this approach is that it will sync everything, since there is only one config file for the whole setup. that means that also my shortcuts will be updated, but this is something I don't want to do because I work across different devices and different OSs with different sets of shortcuts. Adobe solved it by creating names for shortcuts sets, so that you can choose between them. In TVPaint it's possible with Rooms, but they don't exist on the STD version (which I use at work), so this will not work...
