#computational-project-cookie-cutter A cookie cutter (aka project template) to set up a folder structure for a computational project. This is a quick way to setup a folder structure that follows one standard to organize a project. This helps with project management, reproducibility, sharing, and publishing your data, analysis, and results.

This project was inspired (and modeled off) by:

Noble WS 2009 A Quick Guide to Organizing Computational Biology Projects. PLoS Comput Biol 5 7: e1000424. doi:10.1371/journal.pcbi.1000424

What it does

the setup_project_dir.sh script creates the following folder structure:

Path_Provided
|- doc/           # directory for documentation, one subdirectory for manuscript
|
|- data/          # data for storing fixed data sets
|
|- src/           # any source code
|
|- bin/           # any compiled binaries or scripts
|
|- results/       # output for tracking computational experiments performed on data

A README containing a brief blurb is placed in each folder. This is because git will not track empty folders and placing a README will remind you of what goes in each folder, and also the overall folder structure will be retained

If you use a webservice in conjunction with your version control (e.g. github, bitbucket, gitlabs, gitbucket, etc) the webservice will be able to render these README and other markdown files automatically.
