Quickly bookmark files and folders (local or remote), organize them into folders and groups, and open them from a dedicated view.
This project is a fork of howardzuo/vscode-favorites. Thanks to Howard Zuo and the contributors to the original extension.
Features
Bookmark files or folders from the Explorer or editor context menu.
Organize bookmarks into custom folders inside each group; pick the target folder when adding.
Dedicated Favorites view with commands to open, reveal in OS/side bar, reorder, and manage folders.
Works in single- and multi-root workspaces and supports remote resources.
Install
From the Marketplace (once published): ext install <your-publisher>.quick-bookmark
Or install a packaged VSIX locally:
npm install && npm run package
In VS Code, run “Extensions: Install from VSIX...” and choose the generated .vsix.
Usage
Right-click any file or folder and choose Add to Favorites.
Choose a destination folder (or root) inside the current group; the bookmark is stored in your workspace settings or .code-workspace.
Open the Favorites view to access bookmarks quickly; use context menus to open, reveal, reorder, or remove items.
Create, rename, or delete favorites folders from the view title actions; switch groups via command palette commands.
Configuration
{
"favorites.resources": [], // Resources you have bookmarked
"favorites.sortOrder": "ASC", // ASC, DESC, MANUAL
"favorites.saveSeparated": false, // Store config in an extra .vscfavoriterc file
"favorites.groups": ["Default"], // All groups in the workspace
"favorites.currentGroup": "Default" // The group currently in use
}
These settings are normally managed through the UI; you rarely need to edit them manually.
