## About

Tilde is the beautiful, native macOS file manager built to make your files work the way you do. Finder forces archaic workflows and leaves you retracing folders just to get back to work. Tilde keeps each project's context together, and allows you to set things up in a way that makes sense for your work.

Features
• Unique & intiuitive Split Pane System with tabs in every pane
• Custom Sidebars for every context
• Custom Sidebar Groups (how does Finder not have this?)
• Live Sidebar Groups that automatically show matching files
• Saved Workspaces that restore your layout and tabs
• Custom Properties to filter, sort and group files
• Pinned Folders for quick access to deep subfolders
• Related Folders and website links alongside your files
• Command Palette for finding files and running actions
• File and folder Nicknames without renaming anything on disk
• Markdown viewing and editing with live formatting
• Batch image conversion, resizing and flipping
• + much more...
