Key features
Project exclusion presets
Provides 19 presets including Next.js, Node, Rust, Python, JVM, .NET, Go, and Flutter, and automatically detects the project type from marker files such as package.json and Cargo.toml. Excluded folders aren't even scanned, so even a huge node_modules is skipped instantly.
Fine-grained copy filters
Combine glob include and exclude patterns, extensions, size, modification time, name regex, hidden files, and .gitignore rules. A dry run shows how many files will be copied and excluded before you start.
Fast parallel copying
Splits large and small files into separate work lanes processed at the same time, and uses the operating system's native copy path. The target folder is listed only once, and only changed files are recopied.
Safe cut
Moves only the files that pass the filter, and deletes the originals only when every file finishes without errors. If there's an error or cancellation, the originals stay where they are.
Large file progress and instant cancel
Large files are copied in chunks with a per-file progress bar, and canceling stops immediately and cleans up partially written files.
Dual pane for developers
Offers per-folder project badges, dimmed excluded items, git branches, a command palette, code preview, one-click opening in a terminal or VS Code, favorites, and keyboard-first navigation.
Troubleshooting
I can't see a download button.
Check the currently published installers and verification details on the downloads page.
Can I check which operating systems are supported?
The docs only list environments verified for each product. “Being verified” means support isn't confirmed yet.
Where can I check the current feature scope?
The key features in these docs and the product page are written based on the current project source.
