VSCodeTeleporter

VSCodeTeleporter is a productivity utility designed to eliminate the friction of window management. With a single keyboard shortcut, you can instantly launch or "teleport" to a specific VSCode project, no more digging through directories or hunting through open windows.

• Launch new VSCode in your Source directory
• Jump to VSCode instance (if already open)
• Git Clone target URL (opens if target folder already exists)

Getting Started

The Pipeline/Action artifacts contains a framework dependent release (assuming .NET 10 is installed) or a self-contained release.

Update the appsettings.json to suit your needs:

{
  "SearchRoot": "C:\\src\\",
  "HotkeyModifiers": "Ctrl+Alt",
  "HotkeyKey": "S",
  "StartWithWindows": false
}

Run the executable VSCodeTeleporter.exe

Configuration

SearchRoot: The parent directory, containing all your source code.

HotkeyModifiers: The modifiers to trigger the tool, see Modifier Key Names

HotkeyKey: The hotkey to trigger the tool.

StartWithWindows: False by default, this can also be set from the taskbar, right-click the > icon.

Troubleshooting

Application won't start:

Windows may have blocked the files. Try Unblock-File through PowerShell, or right-click properties - unblock file.

I run the application but don't see anything.

After running the executable, check for an > icon on the taskbar (by the clock). Double click the icon to launch, or use the keyboard shortcut.
