Before doing anything, please take a look at this , which is what motivate me to make this.
I will be evaluating anything related to org-mode (emacs) and studying, with too much information I may need to slice it into two sections.
Even the messier notes can be organized well. What I found out to be the best practice to keep it that way.
~/Documents/Courses/Math/
e.g ~/Documents/Courses/Math/notes.org
Most of the time you’ll get a bunch of .pdf, .doc, .docx, .ppt, .pptx, …
files, generally theory files. These files will make you a mess. For
that it’s way easier to handle these into a directory itself, specially if
you save your assigments or homework in your root directory. e.g.
~/Documents/Courses/Math/Theory/
You may want to have subdirs for every class, specially if we are
programming (or anything that requires us to make separates files), or even
only one directory for the “exercises” or whatever we are
following up with the class e.g. ~/Documents/Courses/Math/1
and
~/Documents/Courses/Math/2
and so on..
