Features

Project Management

Details

Feature	Description
Create & Import	Create new projects from scratch or from templates, import existing ones from disk, or clone directly from a Git repo.
Drag & Drop Reorder	Rearrange projects with drag-and-drop, within a category or between categories.
Pin Projects	Pin projects to a dedicated section at the top.
Tags	Tags are read straight from project.godot, so they stay in sync with the Godot launcher. Edit, add, or delete them and the sync follows.
Batch Operations	Select multiple projects at once to change versions, assign categories, toggle pins, or remove from the library.
Search & Filter	Search by name or path, filter by category, sort by custom order, name, date, last opened, or size.
Version Warnings	Flags when a project's bound Godot version is missing or there's a major version mismatch.
Project Properties	A file breakdown by type (scripts, scenes, images, audio, 3D models, etc.) with sizes and counts.
Custom Launch Args	Add custom command-line arguments when launching a project.
Quick Actions	Open the project folder, open in an external editor, or open a terminal at the project path, all from the project card.

Godot Version Management

Details

Feature	Description
Browse Releases	Pulls the full list of official Godot builds from GitHub, filtered for your platform.
Download & Install	Progress tracking, resume support, and concurrent downloads (configurable up to 10 at once).
Import Versions	Import an existing Godot install from any folder, or drag-and-drop a .zip.
Grouped Display	Versions grouped by major.minor with collapsible sections.
Filtering	Filter by build type (Standard / Mono / Both) and channel (Stable / Unstable / Both).
Custom Names	Give installed versions your own names.
Pin as Current	Mark one version as the current one. GodotHub drops a Godot launcher into its aliases folder, so scripts, test runners, and MCP servers get a stable path that follows the pin.
Version Aliases	Give extra command names to specific versions; godot-mono, godot-next, whatever you like. Manage them from the Versions view; delete a launcher from the folder and the alias disappears from the app too.
Auto-Cleanup	Prunes missing executables from the registry automatically.

Templates

Details

Feature	Description
Save as Template	Turn any existing project into a reusable template.
Create from Template	Start new projects pre-populated with a template's content.
Preview Contents	Browse a template's full directory tree before using it.
Sync from Directory	Auto-import templates from a configured scan folder.

AI Disclosure

Some parts of this codebase have been restructured and had small bugs fixed with the help of DeepSeek AI. I review and test every change myself before merging anything. The whole codebase was written by a freshly baked human from scratch.

For anyone who doesn't read commits: Copilot is not used here. It accidentally got added to the collaborators list after fixing a PR that literally just removed a space. I've since disabled it, and it has no authority over this repo, including reviews. As for Codebuff AI, I never even had a subscription to it. I was just testing it out before realizing that, and it somehow snuck into a commit message.

Contributors can use AI during development, but every PR is manually reviewed before I merge it. I use AI myself for assistance, but I'm strictly against "vibe-coding" and don't allow unchecked AI output. I can't speak for how contributors use AI, nor am I responsible for it, as long as the PR does its job correctly.
