Main customizable variables:

pe/project-root-function

Function that will locate the project root from the current
`default-directory`

pe/directory-tree-function

Indexing backend. One of `pe/get-directory-tree-async' (native,
asynchronous), `pe/get-directory-tree-simple'(native, synchronous) or
`pe/get-directory-tree-external' (extrnal, asynchronus, requires
"find" with GNU extensions)

pe/cache-enabled

Whether to use caching

pe/omit-regex

Files and directories matching this regex won't be traversed

pe/omit-gitignore

Omit files based on .gitignore. Directories containing only ignored files won't be shown.

pe/side

Set to 'left or 'right, depending on which side you want the sidebar to appear

pe/width

The width of the sidebar when it first appears

Tailor-fitting pe/project-root-function

The default pe/project-root-function assumes that the project root will be the closest directory containing .git, or the current directory. If you have projectile installed, it will simply use projectile-project-root instead. Should you need something more specific, it's not hard to make your own project-finding function.

(defun pe/project-root-function-sample ()
  (expand-file-name
   (or
    ;; A specific directory
    (when (string-prefix-p "/path/to/my/project/" default-directory)
      "/path/to/my/project/")
    ;; A directory containg a file
    (locate-dominating-file default-directory "Web.config")
    default-directory)))

(setq pe/project-root-function 'pe/project-root-function-sample)
