## Big directories
Often projects contain compiled, bundled or downloaded files which you don't want to edit. These files can be excluded from projects by configuring `config.ignore_files`. Such a configuration might look like `config.ignore_files = { "^%.", "node_modules" }`. This will exclude the `node_modules` folder and any file starting with `.`. You can add this to a user or project module.
If a project has more files than the maximum (configured with `config.max_project_files`) lite-xl will switch to a different mode where files are lazily loaded.
_Note: Because of lazy loading `core:find-file` will open `core:open-file` instead._
## Add directories to a project
In addition to the project directories it is possible to add other directories
