Spacer – Tag-based File Explorer for Contextual File Management

Summary: Spacer is a file explorer that organizes files using tags instead of folders, enabling fast, flexible search and contextual management through memos, statuses, and priorities. It helps users avoid rigid folder hierarchies and quickly find files with combined tag searches.

What it does

Spacer classifies and searches files based on user-assigned tags rather than fixed folder locations. It also allows users to add notes, status, and priority to files, preserving context without opening them.

Who it's for

Spacer is designed for users managing large collections of files, such as creatives handling assets or researchers organizing papers and presentations.

Why it matters

It addresses the inefficiency of traditional folder systems by providing a more flexible, contextual way to organize and locate files quickly.
