Switch Projects

Switch between projects cleanly so the active manager state, files, and tooling stay aligned with the app you mean to edit.

Project Manager is the real project-switching surface

This highlighted list is where project switching actually happens. When you move between projects, use this Project Manager surface as the source of truth instead of assuming the last open files, managers, or Git state have already updated themselves.

Choose the right project
Switch from the real project list instead of relying on stale editor context.
Verify before opening
Make sure the visible project entry matches the app you intend to edit next.
Avoid cross-project mistakes
Treat project switching as a context change, not just a navigation shortcut.

Use the toolbar to search and manage the project you want next

The Project Manager toolbar is what makes switching practical once you have more than a few apps. Search narrows the list, management actions help you clean up entries, and the controls around the list make it clear which project you are about to open instead of guessing from memory.

TIP: If a project looks stale after external file or Git changes, reopen it before you trust the surrounding manager state.

Next steps

Before you leave Project Manager, confirm that the highlighted list contains the project whose files, pages, and Git state you intend to touch next. That small UI check prevents most of the cross-project confusion this topic is meant to avoid.
