Features

📌 Pin Your Favorites

Star important projects so they always appear at the top — in both the sidebar and the full dashboard.

Search across project names, paths, and tags. Press ⌘K (Mac) or Ctrl+K (Win/Linux) to jump to search instantly.

🏷️ Tag Manager

Organize projects with custom tags. Use the sidebar tag panel to filter by tag, or click the 🏷️ button on any card to manage its tags. Existing tags are suggested for quick reuse.

🎨 Color-Coded Cards

Assign accent colors to projects for visual identification. Each card displays a distinct color from a Microsoft Fluent-inspired palette, or choose your own via the context menu.

📊 Auto-Tracking

Every time you open a folder or workspace in VS Code, it's automatically recorded. No manual setup needed.

🗂️ Sort & Filter

Sort projects by name, type (folder vs workspace), or recently updated. Filter by pinned, recent, or any tag from the sidebar.

  • Sidebar — Quick access via the Activity Bar with Pinned and Recent sections
  • Dashboard — Full webview panel with grid/list view, search, tags, and more

🌗 Theme-Aware

Automatically adapts to your VS Code theme — dark, light, or high contrast.

  1. Install the extension
  2. Open any folder or workspace in VS Code — it's auto-tracked!
  3. Press ⌘⌥D (Mac) or Ctrl+Alt+D (Win/Linux) to open the dashboard
