Would be nice to see Freeter become available again.
I can recommend SuperProductivity as an alternative solution, though with somewhat different focus. It also supports “bookmarks” (links or commands to run) per project, but in addition to Freeter also supports task handling and time tracking for tasks.

Blik can now be found here-
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/blik-easy-file-organization/id955293604?ign-mpt=uo%3D4&mt=12
Just now seeing this thread for the first time, I am giving both Blik and Freeter a whirl.

Blik looks nice. I’m tempted.
When I work on a project that involves notes and files, I generally use Devonthink as sort of a meta-document.
A prettier option is Curio, which I’ve sometimes used as sort of a control panel for something I’m working on.
Embedded files or links to external files look a little unloved by themselves, but it’s possible to use a “stack” which is sort of like a column from a Kanban board. If you drag files or folders to a stack you get a reasonably presentable menu without too much effort, and you can drag things between stacks. That’s helpful if something is going through different phases.

Following your comments, I have also started to test Blik: my impression is that it is a light and very useful application to get files organized quickly. Thanks for your knowledge, dialogue and advice!
I also take this opportunity to introduce myself, as this is my first post on a forum as venerable as this one. I have been quietly enjoying your knowledge for months and today I dare to take action: I am tberni, I develop my professional activity in the field of health, I work preferably with macOS, but I also work with Windows and Linux. And I am writing to you from Barcelona, Catalonia, a European country.
