A PROJECT FILING SYSTEM FOR VS CODE

Every window is a project you were in the middle of.

VS_Abode gives them a place: pinned work on the shelf, everything else in the drawer, the one you're in right now on the desk — with its branch, its uncommitted count, and the note you left yourself.

01 — THE TOUR
A — ON THE DESK
What's open, front and centre

The current window is lifted into a band under the letterhead — branch, uncommitted count, LOC, TODOs, and its own note a click away.

ON THE DESK band
The ledger
B — THE DRAWER
Folders, cards, or a ledger

Everything you've opened, most recent first. Search filters live; tag chips narrow the drawer; PIN puts a project on the shelf as a full folder.

C — NOTES, ON PAPER
Markdown you own

Each note is a plain .abode/notes.md beside its project. It travels with the repo, survives uninstalling, and greps like any other file.

D — NIGHT DESK & WINDOW TINTS
Graphite after dark, a colour per window

The desk follows your VS Code theme. Assign a project a colour and its window wears it — two windows never mistaken for each other.

note to self —

this desk is free, MIT, and built by one person after hours. if it holds your projects well, buy the maker a coffee.

02 — SUPPORT
One designer, one extension, no ads.

If VS_Abode earns its place on your start screen, a coffee is the whole business model.
