+# Open Picker To Switch Between Projects
+
+When opening multiple projects with [Zed](https://zed.dev/), they can be spread
+across separate instances (windows), but Zed's preference is that all projects
+are within the same window. Both _File > Open_ and `zed path/to/project` will
+open that project as part of the existing Zed window.
+
+Once I'm working with multiple projects, I need to toggle between them. This can
+be done from the _Threads_ sidebar by Cmd-clicking the project I want to focus.
+I, however, prefer to use the keybinding that opens a picker menu.
+
+```
+Cmd+Opt+o
+```
+
+Hitting that keybinding with the editor area focused will open a Command Palette
+specifically for interacting with open projects.
+
+I can navigate to the one I want to open either with the arrow keys or `Ctrl-n`
+/ `Ctrl-p` and then hit enter to open it.
