Tips:
Keep in mind that projects must include a Git folder for the extension to identify it as a valid project.
If you'd like to bind the main command to a hotkey, open up your keyboard shortcut settings and bind folderfly.openFolder to a custom keybinding.
For optimal use of the extension and to minimize manual navigation, it's advisable to centralize all your projects within a single main folder with subfolders, and then direct the extension to this main folder.
