Unfold: Enhance macOS Quick Look for Folders & Code

macOS Quick Look is a powerful feature, but it falters when handling folders, archives, or code files. Most third-party solutions feel outdated or inconsistent. Enter Unfold—a lightweight, native macOS extension that transforms Quick Look into a universal preview tool.

What is Unfold?

Unfold extends macOS Quick Look to preview folders, archives, source code, markdown, and ebooks instantly from Finder. No more extracting files or opening multiple apps. Just press the spacebar and view everything cleanly—with syntax highlighting for code files.

Key Features

Folder & Archive Preview: Inspect contents of ZIP, TAR, and other archives without extracting.
Code File Support: Read and highlight code files (e.g., .js, .py) with syntax formatting.
Native & Lightweight: Built for macOS, with no bloat or performance overhead.

Why Choose Unfold?

Unfold prioritizes simplicity and speed. Unlike clunky alternatives, it integrates seamlessly with Finder and respects your privacy. The developer actively seeks user feedback to expand support for new file types and workflows.
