What is DeClutter: File Tagger and Organizer ?

DeClutter is a desktop application built on PySide2. It has 2 main features:

automated files processing based on rules
tagger: a simple file manager that allows tagging files and folders with user defined tags

DeClutter doesn't magically clean up your file mess, but it provides a set of tools that can be incorporated into your file management and archiving policies.

Some common use cases are:

automated deletion of old files in Downloads folder
quick navigation by tags - it's much more intuitive than navigation by folder tree because we don't normally think in tree structures
you can organize files in your "Downloads" folder by automatically moving them to subfolders based on their type, date, etc.
you can set the "expiration time" for files (using tags) and DeClutter will delete them automatically when they expire
if you work on a project in a system that saves new versions with incremental numbers (like FL Studio or Reaper) you can automatically move older versions of project files to a subfolder, keeping only N recent versions

Tagger is a simple file browser where you can:

tag files
view all tagged files
filter files (using the same mechanism as rule conditions)
preview media files There are also tag groups and you can setup a group so that only one tag from this group can be applied to a file. This is useful when you want to define a "parameter" that can have only one value - for example, file rating, file expiration time, etc.
