File naming and structure¶
File naming conventions¶
To indicate the hierarchical type of files for filenames:
Follow a page-based, topical approach to file naming and do not apply any special prefixes.
Use hyphens as space delimiters for search optimization.
For example, technical-considerations-multi-site.rst
.
Directory structure¶
For better organization, use subdirectories to organize the files by a particular grouping such as project or topic.
Common practices include:
Figure subdirectory includes images (both PNG and SVG source files).
Sample subdirectory contains samples of source code and configuration files.
Chapter subdirectory stores all sections included in one chapter with the parent file located in the top-level directory.
