Local-first desktop app

Keep your project paths. Lose the storage bloat.

Folddr moves selected heavy folders into app-managed storage and leaves a symlink in place, so your project keeps working exactly where it already is. No file-content uploads and no cloud dependency.

Overview

Plain, focused, and practical.

Folddr is intentionally simple: free core workflow today, automation-focused Pro features planned, and clear safety checks before risky filesystem actions.

  • Errors remain visible in the interface

Planned Pro scope

How It Works

Three simple steps.

1. Link a heavy folder

Folddr moves the selected folder into managed storage and leaves a symlink in the original project path.

2. Keep working normally

Your tools still see the same path, so workflows keep running while disk usage is shifted.

3. Restore when needed

Restore moves content back and removes the symlink with guardrails to prevent risky operations.

Local data paths

Config
~/.folddr/config.json
Storage root

On Windows, symlink creation may require Administrator privileges or Developer Mode.
