Hey everyone 🤩 I'm Brian, the creator of Gitlantis ⛵️

Gitlantis transforms the way you explore your project files by turning your codebase into an immersive ocean world. Navigate your folders and files by interacting with the floating lighthouses and buoys — it’s a unique, fun, and creative way to visually explore and manage your code. You get:

🚤 Real-Time 3D Exploration

Control a boat that sails across your project’s sea. Move through code like you're exploring uncharted territory.

🗼 Folders as Interactive Towers

Each folder appears as a lighthouse you can interact with to dive deeper into your project's structure.

🛟 Files as Floating Buoys

Encounter files as smaller buoys bobbing in the ocean — click to open them directly in your editor.

🧭 Immersive Minimap Compass

A dynamic compass and minimap help you navigate your codebase like a seasoned sea captain. Easily locate nearby files, folders, and landmarks.

🧵 Breadcrumb Trails

Never get lost. Breadcrumbs show your current location in the oceanic file system, letting you jump back to parent directories with a click.

⚙️ Configurable Settings

Tailor your journey! Toggle features like breadcrumbs, minimap size, splash screen behavior, and more — all from within the extension settings.

Turning a codebase into an interactive ocean world is such a creative and refreshing take on file navigation. It makes exploring projects not just easier, but genuinely enjoyable.

@saliou_kane thanks a lot! It was a fun one to work on with so many interesting challenges. Glad to finally launch it 🥳

Launching soon!

That might make things interesting. But would that keep productivity intact?

Brian Njogu
@manu_goel2 great question. It’s probably more geared towards providing a fun experience over maintaining context. All the same, this concept pushes boundaries in what is possible inside text editors. Thanks!

so clever and fun!
