DevDir

DevDir is a lightweight programming application whose purpose is to help developers manage all folders embedded in a software development project, open or delete the content of directories, as well as monitor files for changes.

Clean feature lineup

The program reveals a well-structured suite of features. You can rely on tooltips for viewing short descriptions about the tool’s capabilities.
DevDir makes use of projects for helping you keep an eye on multiple directories. Folders can be added in the working environment via the built-in browse button or drag-and-drop support. A new directory can be imported by providing details about the file location, name and custom command.

Profile management options

The application gives you the possibility to pick the preferred project from a drop-down list. In addition, you are allowed to open all directories stored within the selected profile and delete the contents of the directories.
You may open path in the command-line console, run batch/script files, change the display name of the folder, save changes to the current profile or delete it, generate a link on desktop which helps you easily open a profile, as well as export the configuration data to a file so you may import it in the future.
When it comes to configuration settings, you can show or hide several elements from the main window, namely open directory, empty, remove from the list, rename entry, open command-line, and run batch/script.

Bottom line

All things considered, DevDir comes with a handy suite of features for helping you create a different profile to each development directory and monitor the changes. On the downside, the GUI cannot be described as highly intuitive, so rookies may need extra time in order to get used to working with the application.
