How to work with multiple applications

The extension lets you work with multiple applications without the need for a multi-root workspace. You can see the list of applications associated with the current workspace in the Applications View.

In the Applications View, the currently active application has its name highlighted. By default, the active application and its active configuration changes with every file you open or edit in the active editor window, if the file is in an application's source directory or belongs to a build directory. You can change this behavior in the nrf-connect.activeAppFollowActiveEditor configuration setting.
