Tired of scrolling through hundreds of files in GitHub's file tree just to find the one you need? File Tree Filter for GitHub lets you instantly filter by name, extension, or custom patterns — so you can focus on code, not navigation. This lightweight extension transforms GitHub's file tree into a powerful search-and-filter tool. No more digging through nested directories; simply type to show only matching files. Perfect for large monorepos, code reviews, or exploring unfamiliar projects. It's the quickest way to boost your GitHub navigation efficiency. ## What's Included - Real-time filter by file name or path - Filter by file extension (e.g., .js, .ts, .py) - Support for glob patterns (e.g., src/**/*.test.js) - Toggle visibility of filtered files with a single click - Works on all GitHub pages with file trees (repos, PRs, gists) ## Who Is This For - Developers working on large monorepos - Code reviewers who need to examine specific file types - Open source contributors exploring unfamiliar codebases - Anyone who finds GitHub's default file tree overwhelming ## How It Works Install the extension from your browser's store (Chrome/Firefox/Edge).

Click the filter icon to toggle filtering on/off. ## Frequently Asked Questions **Does this work on private repositories?** Yes, the extension works on all GitHub pages, including private repos, as long as you are logged in. **Can I filter by multiple criteria?** Currently you can filter by one pattern at a time, but you can combine using glob patterns like *.js or src/**/*. **Is my data sent anywhere?** No, all filtering happens locally in your browser. No data is transmitted or stored. **Does it affect page performance?** Minimal impact. The extension only filters the existing tree nodes — it doesn't load extra data. **Can I use it on GitHub Enterprise?** The extension is designed for github.com.
