[Feature Request] Add layout that has vertical file list on the left and code editor on the right
Currently runjs uses a layout that files are stacked on the top in a tab control
When more files are created, it will be too narrow for these tabs in the top area.
It is good to introduce another layout that has a sidebar to hold these files and user can switch between those layouts.
Not quite sure what you mean when you say "files are stacked on the top", you mean the tabs? This is a standard tab layout, if you have too many open, it's best to just close them.
Understood.
RunJs for me is more like a demo presenter now. I wrote so many demos in it and the tabs became too narrow to add more. Currently I have to save some of them to local files to make space for the newly created ones and reload them when needed, which is kind of inconvenient.
If there is a config to change to a layout that a scrollable tab container is placed on the left and the tab items are stacked vertically, it would be really helpful.
It probably is my misunderstanding to use RunJs in a vs code way, I'll figure out another workflow to fit my use case. Thanks.
I see. Thanks for raising this. It's helpful to hear use cases like this that I hadn't considered. For now, as an alternative to saving files, have you considered creating snippets?
Cool!!!! I didn't notice the snippets tool until right now. It fits well to my use case.
