A good project tree browser for Emacs?

Question

Do you know of a good project tree browser for Emacs other than the Emacs Code Browser (ECB)? The features I value are simplicity, lightweightedness, and language agnosticis

Answer 1

I just now did a word search for "explore" in package-list-packages, and discovered project-explorer. Seems to fit exactly what I want today (I don't code hardly, but I'm getting a grip on the structure of my Jekyll site).

Keys include:

• TAB for folding and unfolding directories
• Open files with RET or f. With a C-u prefix, it will prompt nicely for which window, and even from there allow you to decide to use window or open up a new one to any side (I didn't find the prompt string in the package code, so it seems to leverage built in Emacs functionality nicely; indeed it looks like dired even).

It's available on Melpa and Marmalade. It is available on Github at sabof/project-explorer.

I include the site's image for convenience:

I don't use projectile or helm, but it has some integration.
