💡 Paste a folder structure (or any nested outline) and get a clean tree you can drop into a README, a comment, or documentation. Use the ASCII style for environments that don’t render box-drawing characters. Everything runs in your browser.

README tips

📖

Paste your folder layout as an indented list and drop the generated tree inside a fenced code block in your README.

├

Unicode connectors (├── └──) render nicely on GitHub; switch to ASCII for plain-text environments.

🧹

Keep it focused — show the important folders and files, not every node, so readers grasp the structure fast.

🔒

Runs entirely in your browser.
