I'm coding in vim, so naturally i will open them in the terminal. I am a linux user as well, and there is a scriptable launcher called rofi This scipt presents me all the folders in my development dir, and via fuzzy search it will open the selected one in vim.
rofi in aciton

But this script should be adaptable for any other IDE which supports open directories:

#!/bin/zsh

FQSN=`ls -1 /home/maren/development | rofi -dmenu -theme ~/dotfiles/i3/rofi.rasi ` 
cd ~/development/$FQSN
vim
