We've been using new Tree View API to provide structured view of F# projects - in F# project files needs to be ordered according to compilation order so this additional view gives users better information about their project. We also include in the view list of project references, and assembly references so it's really similar to the Visual Studio solution explorer.

It looks like following:

As I've mentioned - ordering of files is really important for the F# projects, and we provide couple of helper commands to manage it (move file up/down etc). Those commands work more or less, but I don't think it's best UX.
I think it would be super nice if users had ability to use normal drag and drop to manipulate the order - just as they are able to manipulate files in normal file explorer (drag and drop files to move them to subfolder for example)

    Just to add weight to this: file ordering is critically important for F# users. We're also exploring adding click and drag for CPS in Visual Studio, which would leave VSCode as the only F# editor that doesn't support click and drag for file ordering.

    This would be awesome. Some things are actually better done with a GUI and this is one.

    F# developers need this feature as an air.

    Would be good to know if this made the cut from last year's roadmap or not :-)

    It was on the current iteration plan (#139607) until 10 days ago, then removed by Kai Maetzel (@kieferrm) (not moved into the Deferred section though). But there's evidence of work on it by Alex Ross (@alexr00) recently, so I think it stands a chance of landing in 2022.

    John Murray (@gjsjohnmurray) is correct, it does stand a chance of landing in 2022. We're just going through our API process and refining it now.

    Folks who are interested in it can try out the current API proposal and provide feedback in this issue if you want to help!
