Projects and Files

Project lifecycle, file explorer operations, and file watching.

Restore last project/session

On Editor mount, the app restores the most recent project and its layout. If none, it initializes a fresh layout.

File Explorer basics

Open/close the File Explorer from the Editor toolbar. It shows the project tree with search, context menu, and actions:

Search

  • Use the search box to filter by filename.
  • Clear the search with the X button.

Create

  • New File: toolbar button or context menu (inside selected folder)
  • New Folder: toolbar button

Refresh and Collapse

  • Refresh file tree
  • Collapse all folders

Selection and clipboard

  • Multi‑select items; context menu shows Copy, Cut, Paste
  • Paste reuses clipboard items' last operation (copy or cut)

Rename/Delete

  • Rename single item (F2 shortcut shown in menu)
  • Delete selected items; confirmations presented when appropriate

Reveal in Finder/Explorer

  • Use "Reveal in File Explorer" to open the item in the OS file manager

Auto file watching

  • The app watches your project for changes and updates the tree and open files automatically
  • Large edits are debounced to avoid flicker; manual refresh is available
