Hi all, I’ve currently got a big folder full of a bunch of mishmashed sets of files in nested directories:

• model files downloaded from thangs/thingiverse/etc
• source files for models
• my own SCAD source files for my own modeling projects
• the stl exports of those files
• I don’t store the cura projects, but maybe I could
• all the gcode. These get copied over to octoprint to print stuff.

Before I go organizing it all, I wanted to ask how the community sorts their modeling files, or if they use other tools to help keep it all sorted. Any best practices out there?

Additional question: do you just use a good directory structure, or do you use other tools that manage projects for you? I’ve never used any other CAD software besides OpenSCAD, so maybe those applications do some organization for you. Or maybe you self host something like manyfold
