Find a project​

Projects appear in one of three groups:

  • New contains projects you have not opened from the launcher.
  • Pinned keeps chosen projects in the order you set.
  • Recents contains projects you opened recently.

The order is based on projects opened from this computer. Activity on another computer does not change it.

Enter part of a project name in Search to filter all three groups.

Open or manage a project​

Each project card shows its folder and selected tools. Use its actions to:

  • Click Edit in Godot to launch the project with its selected Godot editor.
  • Use the pin button to move the project into or out of Pinned.
  • Use the folder button to open either the project folder or its Godot editor settings folder.
  • Use the settings button to open Project Settings.
  • Use the more-actions button to import or export Godot editor settings, or remove the project from the launcher.

Removing a project from the launcher list does not delete its project folder.

See Project Badges and Tooltips for the status shown on each card. See Troubleshooting when a card shows a warning.

Reorder pinned projects​

Drag a pinned project's reorder handle to move it. The new order is saved on this computer.

You can also reorder with the keyboard:

  1. Focus the reorder button for a pinned project.
  2. Press Space or Enter to pick it up.
  3. Use the arrow keys to move it.
  4. Press Space or Enter to drop it, or Escape to cancel.
