# 🗂️ File Manager

The **File Manager** in WC Studio gives you direct access to your store’s file system — allowing you to create, upload, and manage files and folders without needing FTP or SSH access.

Use it to organize your project structure, upload media or scripts, and make code-level adjustments in a secure and user-friendly interface.

## 🧰 What You Can Do

### 📁 Create New Folder

1. Click the **“New Folder”** button.

Use folders to organize assets like custom scripts, uploads, or third-party integrations.

### 📄 Create New File

1. Click **“New File”**.
2. Enter a name and file extension (e.g., `custom-style.css`, `settings.json`).
