Abstract

This short, 15-minute workshop introduces participants to simple, built-in Windows and macOS commands for generating a complete list of files and folders within any project. Participants will learn how listing files can improve organisation, archiving and reproducibility, as well as how to export a folder tree to a text file. This gives participants an overview of their project structures, improving transparency in their research workflow.
