Open your project in an external application directly from Coddo. Coddo automatically detects installed apps on your machine and organizes them by category:
- Editors - VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Zed, Sublime Text, JetBrains IDEs (WebStorm, IntelliJ, PyCharm, etc.), Xcode, and more
- Terminals - Terminal, iTerm, Warp, Alacritty, Kitty, Ghostty, etc.
- Git clients - Fork, Sourcetree, Tower, GitKraken, GitHub Desktop
Coddo remembers the last app you used and sets it as the default.
Application info
The settings page displays:
- Current version - Your installed Coddo version
- Check for updates - Manually check if a newer version is available (also accessible from the macOS menu bar)
- What’s New - An in-app changelog showing the latest features and changes for each version
Multi-project
All your projects live in a single window. The sidebar includes a project switcher that lets you navigate between projects instantly. You can:
- Add projects — create new or open existing folders
- Reorder projects — drag and drop to organize them
- Switch projects — click to jump between them, each with its own chat, Kanban board, and Git state
Coddo remembers your open projects. When you restart the app, it automatically reopens the projects from your last session.
