01 / Problem
Dev environments still start from memory.
Editors, terminals, and stack-specific commands get reopened manually every time developers move between projects.

Product walkthrough
See a local workspace go from folder to running app.
Import a project, detect its stack, launch it through Windows Terminal, parse the app URL, track the port, and stop the session from Projecto.

02 / Solution
Save the startup ritual for each codebase.
Keep launch behavior close to your machine, your editors, and your real folders. Start faster without giving up local control.
03 / Principle
Local-first is the architecture, not a footnote.
Projecto never uploads source code. Account sync stays focused on identity, billing, and project directory metadata.
Features
Six focused capabilities. No cloud IDE, no source-code upload, no replacement for the tools you already trust.
One control layer for the work already on your machine.
01
Smart project folders
Keep local repositories organized once, then reopen them with the exact launch behavior you expect.
02
Launch profiles
Save the scripts, terminals, editors, and startup order that belong to each project.
03
Editor opening
Jump into the right editor without repeating the same setup steps every time you switch repos.
04
Command execution
Run stack-specific commands from one launch action instead of rebuilding your workspace by memory.
05
Stack detection
Detect common frontend, backend, and desktop stacks and suggest a clean starting preset.
06
Local code, synced control
Projecto keeps source code on your machine while syncing account, billing, and project directory metadata through the hosted backend.
How it works
Save once. Launch the same way every time.
Add a project
Point Projecto at a folder or scan a parent workspace to import several repos in one move.
Save launch behavior
Attach editors, scripts, terminals, and stack-aware presets so startup becomes repeatable.
Launch in one click
Open the project, run the commands, and land in a ready-to-work local environment faster.

FAQ
Before you launch.
Does Projecto upload my code?
No. Projecto never uploads your source code. It keeps project files on your machine and only syncs account, billing, and project directory metadata.
Why does Projecto use Google or Apple sign-in?
Google sign-in and Apple sign-in are used only for account and subscription sync across devices. They do not grant inbox access or source-code access.
How are payments handled?
Payments and subscriptions are handled securely through Dodo Payments. Projecto uses the billing backend only to store subscription state and verify Pro access.
Will desktop sync upload my project files?
No. Desktop sync is for account state, billing, and project directory metadata. Your code stays on your machine.
