Common questions
How should I organize folders for multiple courses?
Give every course the same internal structure, then nest them under a semester folder such as 2026-Spring/CS101. Repeating one layout means you never have to decide where a file goes — you already know, and finding last term's work follows the same path.
Why number folders like 01-Syllabus and 02-Lectures?
Numbering forces folders to sort in the order the semester actually runs rather than alphabetically. It behaves the same way on Windows, macOS, and cloud drives, so your structure looks identical everywhere you open it.
Should lecture notes and slides live in the same folder?
Yes. Grouping by week rather than by file type means everything from a single class sits together, so revising one week is a matter of opening one folder instead of hunting across separate notes and slides directories.
How do I keep research sources and drafts from getting mixed up?
Keep raw sources, processed data, and drafts in separate top-level folders. That way you can always reproduce your analysis from the originals, and your draft history stays readable instead of collapsing into a pile of final_v3 files.
