:wave: Hey,

:card_index_dividers: Do you want to organize your game? Well, you came to the right place. You can use this pack I made to easily structure your game and have it easy to read & access.

:roblox_light: Most developers tend to skip the step of organizing their game, and later will find it much harder to find and add things because everything is messy. This is why keeping things organized is such an important thing.

A brief view of the folders included:

Usage of the Folders: 
World: -> Environment : Objects & assets such as nature, vegetation, lighting, hills, mountains, terrain, backgrounds
	   -> Structures : Things such as buildings, bridges, and things that are classed as structures in general.
	   -> Sounds : Sounds that can be heard locally [only by the current player] or globally [everyone].

ReplicatedStorage: -> Classes : Here you can put modules that can create instances such as tables & utilities, 
				   and other things on the client.

Okay, so where would you recommend to put this? Because I have no idea of a place for it.

Also, never organized but might try it
