Dual-pane workflow
Dual-pane file management for macOS.
A dual-pane file manager keeps two locations visible so copy, move, compare, sync, archive, and remote-transfer work stays direct. Kondor brings that commander-style workflow into a native macOS utility.

Common ways people use this workflow.
Source to destination

Local to remote
Use Pro remote resources such as FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, S3, Dropbox, and Google Drive where available.
Archive to folder
Browse or extract archive contents while staying in the same side-by-side file workspace.

FAQ
Quick answers before you choose.
What does dual-pane file manager mean?
A dual-pane file manager shows two file locations at once, usually source and destination. This makes copy, move, compare, sync, archive, and transfer workflows easier to control.
Is Kondor like Total Commander for Mac?
Kondor uses commander-style ideas such as dual panes and keyboard-first file actions, but it is a native macOS app with its own interface, privacy model, and Pro feature set.
Does dual-pane matter for simple browsing?
For simple browsing, Finder is often enough. Dual-pane matters when source and destination context, repeated operations, or keyboard speed are part of the job.
