✅ Visual studio does not display all files

The screenshot displays the directory in file explorer and the directory in visual studio. Why does the docker file, readme and other files not show up in the solution explorer? Is there a setting for this? The find in files functionality also does not let me search inside the files that are not showing up in solution explorer, but are in the project directory.

because that's the solution explorer, not a file explorer it shows items in your solution you can explicitly include certain files in your solution if you want them to show up there

Solution view literal mounts your projects and all their files and folders . There is a toggle button in same window to show all files. In vscode you have an option for folder view.

It does not show all files. Items need to be manually added so they can show up.
