Ideas

• add command to support carthage update
• add sorting to the list of projects
• add favourites projects
• configure the actions when you press on the project. so you will be able to see only those that you need

TODO

• update commands logic so some commands like: open workspace, open in finder will not use terminal to open the files
• put action "open in Xcode" in the main view
• remove project's derived data folder
• ability to rename project name
• add ability to add custom command
• add Sparkle framework to check for updates automatically
