Show HN: Edit the filesystem like a text buffer in VSCode

1 points by hexomancer 11 hours ago

I wrote a vscode extension which allows you to create/rename/move/delete files by editing a text buffer. If you are familiar with oil.nvim, this is similar. In my opinion this is vastly superior to the built-in file manager because it allows you to utilize your existing text-editing muscle memory into file manipulation skills, as opposed to the built-in file explorer which requires mouse or at least memorizing new keyboard shortcuts. There is a video demo on the github page.

Here is the extension page on the visual studio marketplace: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=AliMosta...
