qqq 16.5.1+ is required for Linux / macOS. Details
You should not need to open a separate note-taking application just to collect screenshots, images, files, folders, videos, HTML pages, and creative materials.
With qqq IDE, your editor becomes an all-media workspace.
VS Code / Code-OSS / VSCodium can become a paste-friendly notebook for developers, creators, writers, AI users, and anyone who organizes ideas inside an IDE.
The core workflow is simple:
Copy → Paste → Preview → Organize → Continue
qqq IDE extends paste beyond plain text.
You can paste screenshots, image files, folders, videos, HTML pages, documents, and media resources directly into the editor.
This works in plain text files, custom file extensions, and even files with no extension.
qqq IDE lets you paste screenshots directly into any document, including .txt, .1, custom file extensions, or files with no extension, and preview them with WYSIWYG rendering.
qqq IDE lets you paste image files directly into the editor and preview them in place.
Via qqq, you can paste txt, exe, psd, mp3, folders, mp4 videos, and many other file types directly into VS Code / Code-OSS / VSCodium with WYSIWYG preview.
Use:
Ctrl+VF2
qqq makes paste a universal input action inside the IDE.
You can organize your ideas immediately without leaving the editor.
To organize ideas, files, screenshots, folders, videos, and media resources, you also need to jump between arbitrary directories quickly.
qqq includes Roam, a fast file explorer for VS Code / Code-OSS / VSCodium.
Invoke Roam with:
Tabwhen not in editing mode- Roam command
- Roam button
Space + Q
Roam, from qqq, is a file explorer designed for fast navigation, recent locations, keyboard-first workflows, and access to directories outside the current project folder.
-
Reach any location
Roam is not limited to the current project folder. You can jump to any local directory. You can also map remote disks locally and work with them directly.
-
Fast file browsing
Roam is designed for fast directory listing and quick navigation, even on heavy machines, servers, and virtual machines.
-
Transactional file operations
Roam uses transactional file operations to make large-scale file deletion, copying, and organization more reliable.
For details on VS Code's official file manager limitations, see:
https://github.com/gh555com/qqq/blob/qq/docs/VS_Code_Official_File_Explorer_Limitations.md
-
Keyboard-first workflow
Roam supports recent visits, quick filtering, keyboard operation, quick file creation, list preferences, sorting preferences, and direct opening of administrator terminals.
Example workflow:
Tab → filename → Enter → new file opens and enters editing mode
With Roam, you can select folders, files, or a mixed set of files and folders to copy, delete, or calculate size in bulk.
Roam keeps frequently visited locations close, so you can move between projects, documents, music, videos, games, and media folders faster.
Useful Roam shortcuts:
- Press
Spaceon a selected item to request its size. - Press
1to scroll to the top of the list. - Press
2to scroll to the bottom of the list. - Press
Qto open selected projects or documents in IDE. - Press
Wto open selected music, videos, games, folders, or media resources. - Press
Space + Qto invoke Roam.
qqq IDE supports sniffing & pasting HTML(Rich Text) into the editor.
Compatibility is best with Chromium-based browsers.
If you copy from some browsers, such as Edge in certain modes, only plain text may be displayed.
Test URL:
This test page contains a mix of videos, images, and text.
Test objectives:
- All videos should be downloaded.
- The order of text, images, and videos should remain correct.
- No garbled characters should appear.
- Repeated operations should save identical resources only once.
- Identical images and videos should be deduplicated by fingerprinting.
qqq supports document export.
.doc:
- compatible with Word 2003
- based on RTF
- better compatibility for older workflows
.docx:
- compatible with Google Docs and Tencent Docs
- based on Office Open XML
- stronger structure
- better compression ratio
qqq supports ZIP export.
ZIP export is useful for packaging notes, media resources, documents, images, HTML content, and presentation materials into portable archives.
qqq supports workflows for pasting and organizing streaming video resources inside the editor.
qqq can help clean up orphaned resource files that are no longer referenced by your documents.
qqq includes clipboard-related workflows for managing pasted content and recent resources.
qqq 16.5.1+ provides a single universal installer for:
- Windows x64
- Linux x64
- macOS x64
- macOS arm
The installer is designed to work across common operating systems and processor architectures.
No installation options or complex choices are required.
One package works for everything.
qqq supports multiple UI languages: zh、zh-tw、en、ja、de、ko、ru、ar、es、fr、pt-BR
qqq is built on a highly efficient Rust-based underlying architecture with performance optimization.
Its idle CPU and disk IO overhead are designed to stay close to zero.
Its low memory footprint is especially useful when multiple IDEs are running at the same time, such as:
- VS Code
- Cursor
- Antigravity
- Code-OSS
- VSCodium
