[Search / Request] Character Customization

Hello.
I am looking for addon that will let me save/load character customization during creation.
Preferably with many slots (20?), don't see limitations are reasonable here.
Maybe have export file, which can be shared to friend. (I have read what addons can't do, and there was something about importing, but I don't think importing values for sliders when creation is an issue in this case)
example: for being a twin sibling

I am willing to learn and do it myself, but I need directions. I know nothing about addon making. I tried "[PC] Basic Addon Creation" tutorial on reddit but this looks a lot more advanced. I can make it work tho, if i can find enough example addons that use similar features.

I don't know if it's worth doing triangle selection or palettes with addon, but would be nice.

Here is how I see it working:
On character selection screen I click "Create Character" button. There will be additional button for this addon. On click a popup window shows, where I can select my previously saved presets, load them, or save current settings as a preset. Here is silly visualization i did in paint

So far I found this (i dont know what its called): https://github.com/esoui/esoui/tree/...haractercreate Where are many functions.
and I made simple values on sliders from game
Code:
[Race]
	Sex
		Male / Female
	Alliance

	Ears
		Ear Size
			0-15
		Ear Rotation
			0-15
		Ear Height

But problem is as I said I have no idea how to "glue" all this info together to make an addon. Can be really simplistic.

Hello, add-ons can't be used until you are in the game world, so no character create addons.

Is that a ToS rule or just impossible to implement?

Not sure about the TOs but definately non accessible/non implementable (technically impossible -> restricted).

It's also stated here in the "Please read BEFORE requesting..." -> below the lines "What addons cannot, and must not do" sticky thread:

-> Directly at point 1.

What addons cannot do

1. Change anything prior to or at the character selection screen, pre-ingame code, character selection or at/during loading screens, or in the crown store/market, at the scying UI, at the Tribute game
So unfortunately you invested your time for nothing

Yes, I did read that, but I thought it would not be a "problem" because it's harmless feature for an addon. Did not think it was because of impossible due to technical reasons.
