Go to Folder

Fuzzy search and jump to any folder in your workspace — including empty folders, or ones excluded from VS Code's built-in Quick Open (Ctrl+P) by files.exclude, search.exclude, or .gitignore.

Why

VS Code's Quick Open only indexes files. Folders (especially empty ones) never show up, even if you know the name and just want to jump to / reveal it. This extension provides a separate command with the same fuzzy-match feel, but for folders.

Usage

• Run "Go to Folder" from the Command Palette, or press Ctrl+Alt+P (Cmd+Alt+P on macOS).
• Type to fuzzy-filter folders (and optionally files).
• Press Enter to reveal the selected item in the Explorer.
• Use the inline buttons to reveal in Explorer, open a terminal there, reveal in your OS file manager, or copy the absolute path.

Using this instead of Ctrl+P

VS Code does not allow extensions to add entries into the native Quick Open list, so this extension ships its own Quick Pick under a separate command/keybinding. If you'd rather have it live on Ctrl+P, rebind it yourself in keybindings.json:

{ "key": "ctrl+p", "command": "folderSearch.quickOpen" }

(You'll lose file Quick Open unless you also enable folderSearch.includeFiles and rebind the original command to another key.)
