Tree Tabs is a VSCode extension which provides a Tree-based layout mananger for open tabs.
A linear-based tab layout (just a big list of tabs) becomes messy and unuseable once you have more than a few tabs open.
Often I'm working in a file which is several logical "components" deep, trying to keep the child/parent caller/callee chains straight in my head
With tree tabs, you can easily give child/parent/sibling relationships to tabs. This makes it much easier to quickly jump between multiple open files which call/render eachother while working in complex codebases.
yarn // install dependencies
yarn run package // build dist
in VSCode:
F5 -> Run // Run Extension
Cmd+P -> Hello World // invoke extension from command pallette

Tip: Many popular extensions utilize animations. This is an excellent way to show off your extension! We recommend short, focused animations that are easy to follow.
If you have any requirements or dependencies, add a section describing those and how to install and configure them.
Include if your extension adds any VS Code settings through the contributes.configuration
extension point.
For example:
This extension contributes the following settings:
myExtension.enable
: Enable/disable this extension.myExtension.thing
: Set toblah
to do something.
