I like the idea of having everything on my home.

(~ is where ❤️ is)

Any kind of ~/Developer or ~/Projects would be a good fit for me. However, in the last year I settle on ~/Code. And since then I store all my repos on that folder. And I try to keep only projects that I am working on. I use GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket for store all of them remotely.

I have three exceptions though. First, my dotfiles repo is at ~/.dotfiles. Second, a spells repo is at .spells which contains some shell scripts.

The third exception is anything that I might use for learning purposes. I store those at ~/Desktop.
