Orbit Explorer

An animated file explorer with an orbit-style aquarium UI for VS Code.

Orbit Explorer turns your workspace tree into a visual, fluid sidebar. Files and folders move along orbit lanes, selected items stay in focus, and details remain close at hand without leaving the editor.

Features

• Orbit-style file and folder navigation
• Animated bubble movement for parent and child items
• Context menu actions for common file operations
• Git state cues for changed, untracked, ignored, and conflict files
• Property panel for name, path, type, size, modified time, children, and Git status
• Refresh support for missed or shared-folder changes

Usage

Open the Orbit Explorer icon from the Activity Bar, then browse your workspace from the animated sidebar.

Single-click opens files in the current editor. Double-click opens files to the side. Right-click an item to show available file actions.
