You can work on new features without disturbing your main code. This guide shows you how to set up an isolated workspace using Git worktrees. It helps you keep your changes separate and safe.
The process checks if you are already in an isolated workspace first. Then it uses your platform's native tools if available. If not, it falls back to manual git worktree commands. This avoids confusion and keeps your project clean.
You also get steps to install dependencies and run tests to confirm everything is ready. This skill is useful for any developer who wants to experiment or work on multiple features at once without mixing them up.
