As a first-time user to OpenCode Desktop, I wanted to close one of the projects in the left sidebar. But right clicking on it didn't show that option. Instead I get an "Inspect" menu entry, which opens DevTools.

If I'm doing something wrong, I apologize. I tried to read the docs/intro to figure out how to use the desktop app, but I couldn't find anything about a desktop app guide at https://opencode.ai/docs. Like, when would I use "New session" when I can already type in the chat right after opening a project. Also, the intro is aimed at using OpenCode for existing projects, not for starting one from scratch.

The context menu to manage a project is coming inthe upcoming releases, as far as I know.

For now, you can close a project by clicking on the "..." button in the hover card that shows up when you hover on a project icon, and then press "close":

New session can be started by using "/new" command or "new session" command from the command pallete (input above).

Thanks @alexyaroshuk, I see the same menu on hover on the ... as on right click now in v1.1.51.
