Final Devlog - WorkParcel is done! and i am using it now!

After spending a lot of time designing, building, testing and fixing WorkParcel, the main version of the app is finally ready!

WorkParcel started from a simple problem I kept noticing. Whenever I worked on a project, I had multiple apps, files, folders and useful links open. If I closed everything and returned later, I had to manually find and reopen the whole setup again.

That is exactly what WorkParcel is made for.

A user can now create a parcel for a task and add the apps, open windows, files, folders and web links connected to it. Creating the parcel keeps the current setup open. Later, the user can use Pack Away to close selected supported application windows and Open Parcel to reopen the saved items.

I also added a to-do list feature. Tasks can now be connected to a particular parcel, so the user can remember what needs to be done when returning to that project. These tasks are also available through the Today page, making it easier to see and manage important work.

Parcel archiving is working now as well.
Item management has also been completed and fixed. Users can remove a particular app, file, folder or link from a parcel, and it disappears from the interface immediately. This only removes the saved WorkParcel record—the original file or folder on the computer is never deleted.

Files and folders can also be checked for availability and relinked if their location changes. Web links are saved as normal URLs and open in the default Windows browser. The app does not require any Chrome or Edge extension and does not claim to capture or close individual browser tabs.

All parcel information is stored locally using SQLite, so the saved setup remains available after closing and reopening WorkParcel. I also added archive and restore, search, local backups, light and dark themes, and a downloadable Windows installer.

WorkParcel is basically a place where you can pack away the digital setup connected to a task and return to it later without searching for everything again.

Like, as soon as i completed makin this, I have started usin it! like the besttttt thing i have ever madee.
