Visual Canvas Builder

Drag-and-drop nodes, configure properties, and design complex structures.

Built for speed.
Engineered for scale.

Visual Canvas Builder

Full drag-and-drop control. Nest folders infinitely deep, reorder nodes with ease, and preview your entire folder tree in real time.

Dynamic Variables

Tag folders with {project}. FolderForge prompts you for values at runtime.

Scan & Clone

Point FolderForge at any existing directory and it instantly captures the entire folder layout as a reusable template.

Asset Bundling & Export

Attach real files — configs, scripts, or assets — directly to your template nodes. Export everything as a portable `.zip` to share with your team.

Ready in three steps.

1

Design Your Structure

Build your ideal folder tree using the visual editor. Add dynamic variables like client names or project dates that get filled in each time.

2

Save as Template

Save the structure to your local template library. Reuse it as many times as you want — everything stays offline on your machine.

3

Generate Instantly

Pick where you want the folders, fill in your variables, and FolderForge creates the entire structure on your filesystem in milliseconds.

Who It's For

Built for every workflow.

Video Production

Standardize your editing pipelines. Instantly create directories for Raw Footage, Audio, AE Comps, Graphics, and final Exports every time you start a new project.

Software Developers

Stop copying old repos just for the boilerplate. Set up a clean starter template with your `.eslintrc`, `vite.config`, `tailwind.config`, and more.

Agency Operations

Client onboarding made flawless. Generate organized project folders with Contracts, Invoices, Deliverables, and working directories for every new client.

Absolute Local Isolation.

FolderForge runs entirely offline on your machine. Zero telemetry. Zero cloud syncing. Your templates live locally in your own data folder — nothing ever leaves your computer. Fully open-source.
