Advanced Project Organization

DevCache uses a hierarchical folder structure similar to your file system:

• Folders: Organize related files and sub-folders
• Files: Store code snippets, documentation, or any text content
• Attachments: Upload binary files (images, PDFs) linked to items

Tags are powerful organizational tools that work across your entire workspace:

Creating Tags

1. Navigate to Dashboard → Tags
2. Click "Create Tag"
3. Choose a name, color, and optional description
4. Save and start applying to your content

Tag Best Practices

• Use consistent naming: Lowercase, hyphenated (e.g., "react-hooks", "api-design")
• Create hierarchies: Use prefixes for related tags ("lang-typescript", "lang-python")
• Limit tag count: 3-5 tags per item is optimal
• Color coding: Use colors to represent categories (blue for languages, green for frameworks)

DevCache uses AI embeddings to understand the semantic meaning of your content:

How It Works

1. Automatic Indexing: When you create or update content, DevCache generates embeddings
2. Semantic Understanding: The AI understands concepts, not just keywords
3. Context-Aware Results: Search results consider your entire workspace

Search Tips

• Natural language: Ask questions like "How do I handle authentication?"
• Describe concepts: "React component for data tables" finds relevant code
• Use the chat: The AI assistant provides better context than keyword search

Mark frequently used items as favorites for quick access:

• Click the star icon on any file or folder
• Access favorites from Dashboard → Favorites
• Favorites appear at the top of search results

Uploading Files

Multiple ways to add content:

• Single file: Click "Upload File" and select a file
• Drag & drop: Drag files directly into the project view
• Folder upload: Upload entire folder structures at once
• Create inline: Click "Create File" to write content directly

Supported Content

• Text files: Fully indexed and searchable (code, markdown, JSON, etc.)
• Binary files: Stored as attachments with metadata
• Language detection: Automatic syntax highlighting and language tags

DevCache automatically tracks your activity:

• Recent file views and edits
• Agent executions
• Downloads from marketplace
• Tag usage analytics
