Hi Forum, I studied the guide about folders and projects in the wiki and it kind of confused me (https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Guides/Folders_and_Projects).
It says "A project is a subdirectory of a folder that contains a file with extension .jproj with the same name as the directory." Fine. Folders have been introduced together with the nouns SystemFolder_j_ and UserFolders_j_ which J creates upon installation. Also fine. I'm not sure about the conclusion, though. Is it mandatory, that project directories are children of the folders specified in UserFolders_j_? Or is it at least discouraged to create a J project in an arbitrary directory which is not part of the folder hierarchy already known to J? Or, to put it in another way: What is the recommended way to create a J project in a directory outside of the /home/user/j9.4-user/projects hierarchy? Sorry for this most likely trivial question, but somehow I'm not able to figure out the connection between folders and directories. Thanks in advance!
