Would it be possible to be able to create files from the root directory. I can only right-click on folders to create files but I’d like to be able to create them in the root.

🙏

I have to right click ‘screenshots’ folder to get this contextual menu.

@fakesamgregory You mean, like when we click on the project name from the root?

That’s what I wanted! More intuitive clicking the empty space below in my opinion (VSCode behaviour) but this is exactly it.
