Lately, I've been finding myself showing/hiding folders/files again and again depending on what I am doing. To make this easier, I created a VSCode extension called Code Modes.

About The Project
Ever found yourself going to the settings to show/hide folders/files again and again depending on whether you are Git debugger man or Configuration man? This extension does exactly that, hiding/showing folders/files depending on what you are doing.
Getting Started
To install the extension follow these simple steps.
Prerequisites
You need VSCode installed.
Installation
- Open the extension sidebar panel in VSCode
- Search for
code-modes. (Be sure to find the right one!) - Click install to install it.
OR
- Clone this repo
-
cd(fcd?) into it - run
code --install-extension code-modes-1.0.0.vsix
Usage
This extension exposes a command and a status bar item
Use the command Code Modes: Change mode…
Basically, there are a bunch of modes, which you can choose. When you are in a certain mode, certain files get excluded from the file tree.
For now, the extension is very basic (I made it in 1 day and I had the most amazing feeling when it worked bug-free) and there is no way to add custom modes, etc.
If you have any suggestions for any modes, feel free to comment!

That sounds interesting, I need to give it a try.

Thanks! It's pretty basic but I will improve sometime.
