vscode-open-file-folder

VS Code extension that adds intelligent context menu options to open files and folders as workspaces in new VS Code windows.

Features

🎯 Smart Folder Opening

• Files: Right-click any file → opens the file's containing folder as workspace
• Folders: Right-click any folder → opens that folder as workspace (not its parent)

🔗 Symlink Support

If you selected a symlink, you will have two options:

1. Open file's folder as workspace
2. Open file's realpath directory as workspace

If you selected ~/.zshrc which symlinks to ~/projects/dotfiles/zshrc:

• Open file's folder as workspace → Opens ~
• Open file's realpath directory as workspace → Opens ~/projects/dotfiles

✨ Context-Aware Menus

Menu options automatically adjust based on what you right-click, providing clear and relevant actions.
