Project Structure on GitHub

Folder Structure Conventions

A typical top-level directory layout

.
├── build # Compiled files (alternatively `dist`)
├── docs # Documentation files (alternatively `doc`)
├── src # Source files (alternatively `lib` or `app`)
├── test # Automated tests (alternatively `spec` or `tests`)
├── tools # Tools and utilities
├── LICENSE
└── README.md
Use short lowercase names at least for the top-level files and folders
except LICENSE, README.md

Source files
The actual source files of a software project are usually stored inside the src folder.
Alternatively, you can put them into the lib (if you're developing a library), or into
the app folder (if your application's source files are not supposed to be compiled).

Automated tests
Automated tests are usually placed into the test or, less commonly, into
the spec or tests folder.
Q: Why tests are placed into a separate folder, as opposed to having them closer
to the code under test?

A: Because you don't want to test the code, you want to test the program.

Documentation files
Often it is beneficial to include some reference data into the project, such as Rich Text
Format (RTF) documentation, which is usually stored into the docs or, less commonly,
into the doc folder.
