Feature request details

Current Issue:

  1. Users must manually right-click or use UI buttons to rename, create files, and create folders in the project structure tab.
  2. This slows down workflow and makes navigation less efficient.

Proposed Solution:

  1. Introduce keyboard shortcuts for these common actions.

Suggested Shortcuts:

  1. Rename File/Folder: F2 (Standard rename shortcut in many IDEs)
  2. Create New File: Ctrl + N (Common shortcut for new files)
  3. Create New Folder: Ctrl + Shift + N (Familiar shortcut for creating folders)

Benefits:
✅ Faster Workflow – Reduces the time spent managing files and folders.
✅ Better Accessibility – Allows users with disabilities to manage files more easily.
✅ Improved Developer Experience – Streamlines project setup and organization.
