Can I use this for existing projects?

Yes, the skill is designed to help reorganize and audit existing projects to align them with modern industry conventions and best practices.

Will it help me manage my .gitignore files?

Yes, it automatically identifies build outputs like /dist, /build, and /bin and ensures they are properly excluded from version control.

Does it handle framework-specific patterns like Django or NestJS?

Absolutely. It recognizes specific folder structures required by popular frameworks to ensure your project remains compatible with ecosystem tools.

What languages are supported by the Project Structure Guide?

It supports most major languages including Node.js, Python, Java, Go, Rust, .NET, PHP, Ruby, and Swift, along with their popular frameworks.
