1. Open the Fleeting Note view in the sidebar.
2. Click 📁 Set Path to choose where notes are stored.
3. Right-click:
   • 📝 A folder → create a new note or folder
   • 📝 A note → rename, delete, or copy path
4. Click 🔄 Refresh to update the view after external edits.

📁 Folder Structure

Your notes are saved as plain .md files inside the folder you choose. You can organize them freely using subfolders.

• 📄 Only .md files and folders are shown in the tree.
• 📁 Folders or files listed in a .gitignore file (at the root) will be hidden automatically.
  • For example, if your .gitignore contains dist/, the dist folder and its contents will not appear.
  • Paths must follow standard .gitignore syntax and use forward slashes (/).
  • Example:

    node_modules/
    dist/
    *.log
    

This ensures that unwanted files or folders are kept out of view while focusing on your notes.
