Personally, to keep my documents like Inkscape files or LibreOffice documents separate from my code, I add a directory under my home directory called Development

What do you all do?

~/Sources for stuff I’m only building from sources and no immediate intention to contribute to
~/Projects for stuff I’m involved in, with a following structure:
Projects - Personal - - Art - - Music - - Code - - - Ideas - - - In progress - - - Deployed - - - Scripts - - - Abandoned - [Company name] - - [Project name] - Interviews - - [Company name]
The last part grouping project by companies has worked great for me, especially with freelance and outsource work. Sorting personal projects into types and stages feels like a mistake, as every time I have to navigate it, I can’t help but think of limitations of hierarchical file systems, as some of them are multiple types simultaneously, and also moving projects between stages feels dumb.
