I realized I always make a source folder under home and then subfolders named after programming languages to organize projects but then I realized I somehow had my own convention for how to store my source code and I have no idea where I got it from

Then I thought. what about other Linux users ?

What sorts of conventions do you have that pertains to folder structure in Linux ?

    I rsync my home folder across installs. These are my standard extra folders.

    ~/Books, with subfolders by topic.

    ~/Comics, with subfolders by publisher, then by title, possibly with an intermediate folder for author or franchise.

    ~/Programming, with subfolders by language, then project.
