File Nesting

[ciel]

Is there any possible chance we might see File Nesting in Visual Studio Code the same way it works in Visual Studio 2015? It was really convenient and helpful. I would adore such a feature!

fyi @bpasero

The most ideal scenario for this is that anything that starts with the same text as a parent file, minus the extension gets nested, like this;

File1.cs
--- File1.File2.cs
--- File1.File3.cs
------ File1.File3.File4.cs

No plans at the moment. Closing until we reconsider this.

This is important feature for large projects. I'm using asp.net vNext for Angular project and now I've following structure automatically (by naming):

src
--app.component.ts
----app.component.ts.sass
----app.component.ts.html
--login.component.ts
----login.component.ts.sass
----login.component.ts.html

In VS Code Explorer I got:

src
--app.component.ts
--app.component.ts.sass
--app.component.ts.html
--login.component.ts
--login.component.ts.sass
--login.component.ts.html

Creating folders for each component is bad solution for angular project (you will need to change references).

We need this feature to move to VS Code.

Agree, at least ts + js + map files (for instance like webstorm does)

It would be great to have file nesting for ts + js + map + style.

Currently we are hiding the .js and .map files which makes checking them an annoyance. Even with just ts + css, the sidebar still feels bloated.

Agree I wish file nesting like this (especially for ng2)

Html
--css
--ts
-- etc ...

Please reconsider this! This is such an important issue.

Theres so many cases where generated files just clutter the workspace. Typescript! Typescript which you use as well! is a prime example. Or LESS/SASS -> css. Or Jade -> Html

There is the option to conditionally hide the generated files. For example:

"files.exclude": {
    "**/*.js": {"when": "$(basename).ts"}
}

This same principal could be applied to your css and map files.

And i am using that option. The problem arises when i want to see the
hidden files. Also its not clear whether the hidden files are actually
there (that the generation is working...), which makes me open the folder
in explorer where the files are also not grouped... another thing is that
some of my collegues arent comfortable with not seeing half the files in
the project and we would like to use the same settings for the whole team.

For some reason most other editors deemed this feature useful enough to
implement it so why not vs code.

I would like to note that this is really not a complicated feature. Im
pretty sure it can be done in a day. (I was thinking about making a pull
request but it might require some small changes to the architecture around
FileStat)
