Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Not sure if there is a way currently - but I am trying to figure out how to load a custom developed codegen into the postman windows desktop client. I would like to test out the functionality from within the desktop client and maybe share it with few users.

Describe the solution you'd like
Folder information where I could paste in custom codegen contents so that it shows up on the UI or alternative steps to get the codegen inside the desktop app.
