File Structure Visualiser

An interactive desktop tool for visualising complex directory trees

Overview

File Structure Visualiser is an Electron desktop application that takes any folder on your machine and renders it as an interactive, navigable tree. Built out of personal frustration with trying to understand large inherited codebases and communicate project structure in documentation.

The tree view supports collapsing and expanding nodes, search and highlight across the entire structure, and colour coding by file type. Nodes can be clicked to open files directly in your default editor.

Export options include a clean SVG diagram for documentation, a plain text tree for README files, and a JSON representation for programmatic use. The app runs fully offline with no telemetry.
