Folder Hop

Like Ctrl+P, but for folders. Type a directory name to filter, press Enter to dive in, and open any folder in a new VS Code window. No saved project list, no setup. Press Ctrl+Shift+O (Cmd+Shift+O on macOS) to start.

Demo

Features

  • Quick pick interface for browsing directories, similar to Ctrl+P for files.
  • Type a name to filter, Enter to dive in: type, Enter, type, Enter to navigate quickly without the arrow keys.
  • Case-sensitive matching that respects the filesystem.
  • Hidden dot folders stay out of the way until the typed name starts with ".".
  • Navigate to the parent directory with ...
  • Open any directory in a new window with "Open this folder".
  • Starts in the current workspace folder.

Usage

Press Ctrl+Shift+O (Cmd+Shift+O on macOS) or run Folder Hop: Open Folder in New Window from the command palette.

Installation

Install from the VS Code Marketplace, or install manually:

git clone https://github.com/fmma/folder-hop.git
cd folder-hop
ln -s "$(pwd)" ~/.vscode/extensions/fmma.folder-hop

Reload VS Code after installing.
