A reference guide documenting folder/directory structure options and naming conventions for software projects. It catalogs common top-level layouts like src, test, docs, and build with examples from popular open-source projects.

Use cases

  • how to structure folders in a software project
  • naming conventions for project directories
  • should source code go in src or lib
  • where to put tests in a repository
  • standard top-level directory layout for open source projects
  • project organization best practices

When to choose

  • starting a new project and deciding on a directory layout
  • standardizing folder naming across a team or organization
  • looking for real-world examples of project structure from popular repos

When to avoid

  • you need tooling that enforces structure automatically
  • you need language-specific framework conventions rather than general guidance
