What is doo?

doo

doo is all about keeping your important files and documents organized, making it super easy to find what you need without hunting around. It can take a bit of time to tidy up your workspace with the tools Windows gives you, but don't worry! There are alternatives like doo that let you keep an eye on specific folders and files.

Is doo Still Useful?

Before you dive into what doo can do, there's something important to consider: the project has been discontinued. This means its flexibility and practicality have taken a hit. You won't be able to use online services or sync with different devices since the servers have shut down.

No More Cloud Features

This leaves you limited to just your desktop. You can't even install it on a USB flash drive for on-the-go access. When you open it up, you're still asked for your account details or to create a new account, but honestly, just hitting "skip" gets you straight to the dashboard.

How Does doo Work?

The main job of doo is helping you watch over specific folders that matter to you. You can analyze, sort, and access them in a way that feels comfy. However, dragging files over isn't an option; instead, you'll use the built-in open dialog.

Selecting Your Folders

Your documents and downloads folders are selected by default, but feel free to switch them out for your favorites! Navigation happens through a side panel filled with links for documents and companies—though keep in mind that online features aren't supported anymore.

User-Friendly Design

All your files show up with large thumbnails which is great if you're working with images. Click on a file, and another panel pops up showing a preview area along with some general file info. You can also attach flags and tags for easier identification!

Searching Made Easy

If your list gets too long or crowded, don't stress! The application lets you search simply by typing characters in a field that's always visible. Plus, there are filters above the listed files that let you narrow things down with just one click!

A Bit of Nostalgia

In conclusion, doo once had the potential to be a powerful file sharing and management tool but has sadly transitioned from being a "doo" to more of a "don't." It's tough watching such an intuitive design fade away. Sure, it can still work offline without an account—just don't expect much beyond its pretty interface!
