Of course, you can use the already built-in function:
`Workspaces: Add Folder To Workspace...`
(workbench.action.addRootFolder).
But then you have to click through all the folders again and again.
AddFolderToWorkspace is a Visual Studio Code extension that streamlines the process of adding and removing folders to and from your projects. It provides a set of commands and context menu options to manage your project’s folder structure directly from the editor.

Feature
AddFolderToWorkspace
This Function provides a searchable list of folders (Workspaces) that can be added simultaneous to the current VSC Workspace. All configured folders will be displayed.
Shortcut: strg + alt + k, p
Command: AddFolderToWorkspace: Add Folder to Workspace.
RemoveFolderFromWorkspace
This Function provides a searchable list of folders (Workspaces) that can be removed simultaneous from the current VSC Workspace. All current open folders are displayed.
Shortcut: strg + alt + k, shift + p
Command: AddFolderToWorkspace: Remove Folder from Workspace.
Add Recent Folders to Workspace
Opens a quick pick of globally saved recent folder paths (built from folders you previously added successfully with this extension). You can add one or many without going through the full configured-folder list. Does not require workspaces / recursiveWorkspaces to be set.
Shortcut: ctrl + alt + k, r (cmd + alt + k, r on macOS where the keybinding resolves similarly)
Command: AddFolderToWorkspace: Add Recent Folders to Workspace.
Clear Recent Folders List
Clears every entry from the global recent-folder history (the same list used by Add Recent Folders and the pinned section of Add Folder to Workspace).
Command: AddFolderToWorkspace: Clear Recent Folders List. (no default keybinding; assign one in Keyboard Shortcuts if you like.)
