    Use Cases & Benefits

    • Offers zero-configuration setup with a single Ruby script that organizes experiments by date and usage frequency for instant access.
    • Use for developers who frequently create short-lived project experiments and need a tidy, searchable workspace.
    • Use for managing multiple concurrent coding experiments without losing track of directory locations or names.
    • Use for cloning git repositories into date-prefixed directories to keep experimental codebases organized and easily accessible.

    From the README

    Your experiments deserve a home. 🏠

    For everyone who constantly creates new projects for little experiments, a one-file Ruby script to quickly manage and navigate to keep them somewhat organized

    Ever find yourself with 50 directories named test, test2, new-test, actually-working-test, scattered across your filesystem? Or worse, just coding in /tmp and losing everything?

    try is here for your beautifully chaotic mind.
