Folder Structure Generator

This VS Code extension helps you quickly scaffold folders and files using one of the following input styles:

✅ Features

• Paste from the clipboard or input box
• Supports indented, slash-based, and tree structures
• Supports multi-file shorthand syntax (comma-separated files under folders)
• Automatically creates nested folders and files
• Edge-case safe (trailing slashes, duplicates, etc.)

📦 Usage

1. Open the command palette (⇧⌘P / Ctrl+Shift+P)
2. Run: Generate Folder Structure
3. Paste your folder structure or enter it manually

🧠 Supported Input Styles

1. Indented Format

Use indentation to denote folder hierarchy. Folders end with a trailing slash /.

src/
  components/
    Button.tsx
    Modal.tsx
utils/
  helpers.js
README.md

2. Tree Format

Use tree-like characters (├──, └──, │) to represent structure.

src/
├── components/
│ ├── Button.tsx
│ └── Modal.tsx
└── utils/
└──  helpers.js
README.md

3. Multiple files per folder using commas and plus:

Use commas to specify multiple files under the same folder.

src/components/Button.tsx,Modal.tsx,Card.tsx+helpers/abc.js,pqr.js

This will create:

src/
  components/
    Button.tsx
    Modal.tsx
    Card.tsx
helpers/
  abc.js
  pqr.js

app/data/api.json,config.json+app/helpers/abc.js,pqr.js

app/
  data/
    api.json
    config.json
  helpers/
    abc.js
    pqr.js

Notes:

• Trailing slashes designate folders.
• Files are created empty.
• Nested folders are created recursively.
• Duplicate paths are ignored.
• The extension tries to auto-detect the input style.

Happy coding! 🚀
