Project Structure Generator

Generate a detailed text file (project-structure.md) of your current workspace’s full file and folder hierarchy with a single command in VS Code.

Features

• Instantly produces an ASCII tree listing all directories and files in your workspace, respecting .gitignore patterns and user-defined exclude filters[^1].
• Outputs to a markdown file (project-structure.md) at the workspace root and automatically opens it in the editor[^2].
• Provides a Command Palette entry ("Generate Project Structure") and Explorer context menu integration for folders[^3].

Requirements

• Visual Studio Code v1.60.0 or later[^4].
• Node.js v12 or newer installed on your system[^5].

Installation

1. Install from the VS Code Marketplace:
   Link to Marketplace
2. Or install manually from .vsix:
   • Download the .vsix file from the Releases page.
   • In VS Code, run Extensions: Install from VSIX... from the Command Palette.

Usage

1. Open any workspace folder in VS Code.
2. Run Generate Project Structure from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P), or right-click a folder in the Explorer and select Generate Project Structure.
3. A new file, project-structure.md, will appear at the workspace root with the full ASCII tree of your project.
