I realized I always make a source folder under home and then subfolders named after programming languages to organize projects but then I realized I somehow had my own convention for how to store my source code and I have no idea where I got it from

Then I thought. what about other Linux users ?

What sorts of conventions do you have that pertains to folder structure in Linux ?

Since projects of the same language often use the same tooling this makes it easier to clean up the whole directory by running something like this:

for d in ./*/ ; do (cd "$d" && somecommand); done

somecommand could be cargo clean if you're in the Rust directory for example.
