Open non-Xcode project in Xcode

Question

Right now I'm working on a static website that uses markdown. Rather than editing the files in SublimeText, I'd like to edit them in Xcode. I can open the individual files in Xcode, but I want to open the entire static site directory and benefit from using the file navigator pane and other Xcode features. Is this possible?

Reason: I've used Xcode for years and have come to really love the diffing tools, editor customizations, navigation, and keybindings.

Answer 1

I figured it out.

Create a new project in Xcode. When prompted to choose a template, select Cross-Platform, then select Empty. This will create an empty project. You can then drag-drop your project directory into the empty project. The git diff remains unchanged, ftw.
