# Directory layout

Maven projects have a common directory layout

NOTE: Use `tree` in command line to see this output below

This is from the project I have worked on

NOTE: `poker-game.iml` is just an intellij file and not really needed

Things to notice:

* All code is in the `src`
* pom.xml is outside of the src directory
* Application source(ie main) and Test source(ie test) are separated
* A separate folder called `target` where all the compiled files are stored
* A resourcse folder for files such as property files
