## What it is
A community-maintained standard directory tree template for organizing all kinds of data, curated by the r/datacurator and r/datahoarder communities. It ships in several variants (full, Plex-focused, scene, personal home) that users can adopt as folder structure conventions.

## Use cases
- organize my messy hard drive with a standard folder structure
- set up a filetree for my Plex media server
- find a community-agreed directory layout for archiving data
- structure my personal home folder and user accounts
- curate a large warez/scene collection with consistent folders
- standardize file storage across multiple machines

## When to choose
- you want a battle-tested, community-vetted folder hierarchy instead of inventing your own
- you run a Plex media server and want a media-oriented layout
- you are part of the datahoarding/datacuration scene and want interoperable conventions

## When to avoid
- you need executable software that automatically sorts or renames files - this is only a template
- your storage needs are highly specialized and none of the offered variants fit
- you want automated tooling or scripts; the repo is primarily a documented structure

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: file-system, developer-tools
- domain: files, self-hosted, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: file-organization, filetree, template, data-curation, plex, media-server, community-standard
