Hey guys! I’m excited to announce v6-canary.9, which comes with a bunch of sidebar improvements! Here we go~~
Notebook Icons
You can now assign custom icons to your notebooks to visually distinguish them at a glance. Right-click a notebook and select “Change Notebook Icon…” to open the icon picker.
The icon picker features:
- 1,500+ icons from the Lucide icon set
- Category tabs for quick browsing (General, Design, Development, Files, etc.)
- Search functionality to find icons by name
Icons are displayed throughout the app including the sidebar, telescope, and notebook selectors in dialogs.
Language Icons for Codeblocks
Codeblocks now display language-specific icons in the preview, making it easier to identify the programming language at a glance. Icons are shown for popular languages including JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go, Ruby, and many more.
Manual Notebook Ordering
You can now drag and drop notebooks in the sidebar to arrange them in your preferred order. Previously, notebooks were sorted alphabetically. The custom order syncs across your devices.
