qqq (IDE): Paste Everything into VS Code / Code-OSS / VSCodium

qqq IDE: Paste Everything into VS Code / Code-OSS / VSCodium Make everything pasteable. Orchestrate ideas. Turn the IDE into an operating system. qqq IDE lets you paste images, files, folders, HTML pages, videos, and media directly into VS Code / Code-OSS / VSCodium — with WYSIWYG preview.

Not only for code. I use it for notes, files, references, images, documents, experiments, ideas, and project organization. But there is one basic action that still feels too limited in most editors: Paste. In most editors, paste mainly means text. If you want to paste an image, a folder, an HTML page, a video, or a mixed set of creative materials, the workflow often breaks. You need to open another app, save files manually, choose a folder, insert links, convert formats, or rebuild context later. qqq tries to remove that friction. The idea is simple: Copy. Paste. Preview. Organize. Continue. What qqq does qqq makes many kinds of content pasteable and previewable inside the editor. You can paste: images screenshots files folders HTML pages web images videos media resources documents mixed creative materials This works not only in Markdown. qqq is designed to work in plain text files, custom file extensions, and even files without extensions. The goal is to make the IDE a place where useful materials can be captured immediately. Paste Everything The core workflow of qqq is enhanced paste. You can use: Ctrl+V F2 to paste images, files, folders, HTML pages, videos, and media directly into VS Code / Code-OSS / VSCodium. This turns paste from a text-only operation into a universal input action. Instead of treating the IDE only as a code editor, qqq treats it as a workspace that can receive almost anything. WYSIWYG preview Pasting is not enough. If everything becomes only a hidden path or a plain text reference, the workflow is still broken. qqq focuses on making pasted content visible and usable inside the editor. That is why WYSIWYG preview matters. The idea is not only: paste an image path but: paste the image, see it, use it, organize it, and keep moving. This is also why qqq is not only a paste-image extension. It is a paste-anything workflow for the IDE. Roam File Explorer qqq also includes a built-in file explorer called Roam. Roam is designed for fast file navigation and creative organization. It is not limited to the current project folder. It helps you move quickly between directories, recent locations, files, folders, media, and external resources. The direction is simple: If the IDE is becoming the main workspace, file navigation must become faster and more flexible. Roam is part of that direction. Why this matters Modern IDEs are becoming more than places for writing code. For many developers, writers, creators, and AI tool users, the IDE is already becoming the center of daily work. It is where we: write code collect references manage files talk to AI read documentation organize projects capture ideas build products But if the IDE cannot easily receive images, folders, HTML pages, videos, documents, and media, then the workspace is incomplete. qqq tries to complete that missing layer. That is why the direction of qqq is: Make everything pasteable. Orchestrate ideas. Turn the IDE into an operating system. Current features qqq currently supports workflows around: paste images paste files paste folders paste HTML paste videos WYSIWYG preview media preview resource organization DOC / DOCX export ZIP export clipboard-related workflows Roam file explorer multilingual UI The project is open source and available for review: https://github.com/gh555com/qqq Current direction qqq is currently an extension. But the long-term direction is qqq IDE. qqq IDE is a Code-OSS / VSCodium based IDE direction focused on: paste-anything workflows all-media notes creative organization file and folder orchestration WYSIWYG editor experiences AI-era IDE workflows The goal is not to make another small editor plugin. The goal is to explore a different kind of IDE workspace. One where ideas, files, images, HTML pages, videos, documents, and media can all enter through the same simple action: Paste.
