I am making an alternative file explorer for Windows, using electron (and probably Typescript in the future).

github.com/OpenMigas/open-migas

It's very very basic now, but I am planning to add more features, it's meant to make dev's life easier.

It would be great if you guys make some unit test, refactor the code, or write a Readme for this project.

Thanks everyone.

How to build it?

In the package.json file, you can see different scripts to run the application, use npm start to run the app on a dev environment, or use the electron-builder module to pack and distribute the app. You can find more info about electron-builder here: github.com/electron-userland/elect...

Hi!
There are some basic features that are needed, like multiple file selection, clipboard, recursive search, view settings, group by, sort by, etc.
Also, I am planning to integrate Git to manage files versions, something like VS Code does.
