From ASCII Trees to Real Folders (VIBE)

🎯 From ASCII Trees to Real Folders β€” The Ultimate Tool for VIBE Coders
Ever received a beautifully structured ASCII folder tree in a README, email, or chat β€” and thought β€œNice... but now I have to manually create all of that?”

Not anymore.

Introducing one of the most elegant small tools you didn’t know you needed:
πŸ‘‰ ASCII to Commands - Vibe

🌳 What is it?
ASCII Tree to Commands is a no-nonsense web tool that converts ASCII-style directory structures into ready-to-run shell or CMD commands.

Whether you’re on Linux or Windows, this page will save you from the tedium of typing out every mkdir line by hand.

Just:

Paste your tree structure

Choose your platform

Copy the generated commands

Done. Literally in seconds.

⚑ Why it’s awesome
πŸ•’ Saves time – Skip the manual typing.

🧱 Repeatable & scriptable – Ideal for docs, onboarding, scripts, or automation.

πŸ–₯️ Cross-platform – Choose between Linux (mkdir -p) and Windows (mkdir) formats.

πŸ’‘ Zero learning curve – Just paste and go.

πŸ” Great for demos & teaching – Quickly turn examples into real commands.

πŸ“¦ Example
Input:

css
Copy
Edit
project/
β”œβ”€β”€ src/
β”‚ └── main/
β”œβ”€β”€ test/
└── docs/
Output (Linux):

bash
Copy
Edit
mkdir -p project/src/main
mkdir -p project/test
mkdir -p project/docs
Or with a click, get the same thing in Windows syntax.

🎧 Built for the VIBE Coder
This is the kind of tool every modern developer loves β€” especially if you’re the type who lets AI handle the boilerplate while you focus on architecture, flow, and shipping cool things.

Yes, we're talking about the VIBE coder:

Someone who uses smart tools, prompts like a pro, and never wastes time reinventing the wheel.

Whether you're writing scripts, onboarding juniors, or just cleaning up messy project folders β€” this tool fits right into your flow.
