Can one DevDock project contain multiple repositories?
A DevDock project can represent one repository, a monorepo, or a product assembled from several separately located folders. Each folder keeps its own role, technology detection, working directories, generated tasks, and shortcuts while contributing to one product overview.

Does DevDock replace the terminal?
No. It provides a repeatable control surface for common project workflows and can still open a registered folder in a terminal, Visual Studio Code, or File Explorer.
Does project detection run repository code?
No. Detection reads a bounded set of manifests and marker files. It does not execute package managers, build tools, project scripts, or network requests.
