Purposeful Organization

I recently published a post on Hackernoon about how to be more organized as a developer, and how that organization can help boost your career.

Here's the point. When you're writing software, you follow basic principles like: "A class should have a single purpose" or "a function should have a single purpose". Do you notice anything similar in those two statements? In order to write clean, testable code we need to ensure it has a single purpose. Why not follow that mentality for everything else that you do? Everything in your development life can be grouped by singular, purpose-driven folders.
