How to start a project in Kate

Hi folks,

I want to create project in Kate.
The project contains a number of source files located in a specific location.
e.g1: $HOME/Documents/examples/.
In this directory there are several other sub-directories with the source files. e.g2: /dir-1/file-1.ino, /dir-2/file-2.ino, /dir-3/file-3.ino etc…
My question, can I create a project from “inside” Kate after I have loaded some/all files in this structure.

I have read the instructions to create a project file [.kateproject] but I was hoping I could create a project on an easier way.
Btw. there is no version control system involved in this.

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

no suggestions from the community?

You can just initialize the project as a git repository and it should show up on kate.

And what if I don’t want/need to use Git for this project?

I guess I forgot to mention, I’m running Kate Version 24.12.2 - (flatpak).
In case that would be important. :smile:
