Organize Projects with Folders
Keep your workspace organized by creating folders for your projects. Folders support nesting, so you can create a hierarchy that matches your workflow.
Creating Folders
There are two ways to create a new folder:
- From Sidebar - Click the "+ New Folder..." button at the bottom of the folder tree
- Right-Click Menu - Right-click on any folder to create a subfolder inside it
Newly created folders appear in the sidebar tree and are automatically given the name "New Folder". You can rename them immediately or later.
Moving Projects to Folders
There are three convenient ways to organize projects into folders:
1. Drag and Drop
The fastest way! Simply drag any project row from the table and drop it onto a folder in the sidebar. You'll see visual feedback when hovering over a valid drop target.
2. Click Folder Column
Click on the folder name in the "Folder" column of any project row. This opens a dialog showing your folder hierarchy as a tree. Click any folder to move the project there, or select "No folder (Root)" to remove it from all folders.
3. Right-Click Context Menu
Right-click any project row in the table to open a context menu with options:
- Rename - Change the project title
- Move to Folder - Opens the folder selection dialog
- Archive - Archive the project (move to Archive view)
Editing Projects from the Editor
When working on a project, you can also change its folder without going back to the dashboard. Simply click the project title in the editor header. This opens a popover where you can:
- Rename the project
- Move it to a different folder using the hierarchical folder tree
Managing Folders
Renaming Folders
Right-click any folder in the sidebar and select "Rename" from the context menu.
Deleting Folders
Right-click a folder and select "Delete". When you delete a folder, its projects are moved to the root level (no folder). The projects themselves are not deleted.
Note: The "Drafts" folder is a system folder and cannot be deleted.
Nested Folders
Folders can contain other folders, creating a hierarchy. There's no limit to how deep you can nest. Click the arrow icon next to a folder to expand or collapse it.
Special Views
The sidebar includes two special views at the top:
- All - Shows all non-archived projects across all folders
- Archive - Shows projects you've archived (at the bottom of the tree)
Tips
- Use folders to group projects by client, course, technology, or any other criteria
- Create a "Templates" folder for boilerplate projects you frequently clone
- The search bar in the dashboard header searches across all folders
- Click any folder in the tree to filter the table and see only that folder's projects
