From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My home folders on any OS have a
Developmentfolder (which conveniently sits right next toDocumentsandDownloads) and in that folder, I’ve also got subfolders per programming language that have the respective projects in them.The other folder I usually have is
SyncThingwith whatever synced folders are relevant for that machine.Mine is dev. I avoid capitalizing folder names.
Yep, I also have a directory for my programming projects on each of my machines, but mine is
Programming. On my main desktop, I also have anISOsfolder to hold my OS ISOs for VMs and old CD-ROM game ISOs.
