Put every project in the solution folder its directory names - #120
Merged
Conversation
Eight of the ten projects sat at the root of the solution while Export and SmokeTests sat in an "src" and a "tests" folder, which looked like a choice and was not: dotnet sln add mirrors a project's directory into solution folders unless it is given --in-root, so the two most recently added projects grew folders and the rest did not. Mirroring the whole repository settles it in the direction the tool already pulls. src, tests and prototypes now hold what those directories hold, so the solution reads like the checkout and the next project added lands in the right place without anyone remembering a flag. Solution folders are a Visual Studio view and nothing else reads them: the build takes the same ten projects, in the same configurations, with the same identifiers.

would have drifted again with the next project.

src,testsandprototypesnow hold what those directories hold, so the solution reads likethe checkout and a project added later lands in the right place without anyone having to
remember a flag. The alternative — flattening it — needs that flag remembered forever,
which is why it was not taken.
Solution folders are a Visual Studio view and nothing else reads them. The build takes the
same ten projects, in the same configurations, with the same identifiers; only the
NestedProjectssection and one new folder entry change.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
