+## File and Folder Organization
+
+Files and folders are setup with the following overall layout.
+
+``` txt
+/content/
+         tips/category/
+                       index.md
+                       topic_1.md
+                       topic_2.md
+         posts/yyyy-MM-dd-title.md
+               yyyy-MM-dd-title/index.md
+```

+
+### Tips Directory
+
+The `tips` directory contains the main knowledge base data. Each folder is a dedicated `Category` an the `index.md` file is the `Stub` with links out to the topics (`topic_1.md`, `topic_2.md`, etc).
+
+This allows us to easily cross reference information within a category (see [here]({{< ref "#cross-references" >}}) for how to cross reference pages) and keep the topic file names from colliding if there is any overlap between categories.
+
+This rigid, tree'd structure is imposed by Hugo and we have adapted our file and folder organization to work with Hugo instead of against it.
+
+This is also why we can have *only one* primary category for content currently.
+
+{{< back_to_top >}}
+
+### Posts Directory
+
+In this layout the `posts` directory contains all of the blog posts with dated file names using the given pattern. It's a pretty standard and simple folder organization scheme.
+
+We will also use `Page Bundles` ([Hugo docs](https://gohugo.io/content-management/page-bundles/)) for content that includes non-textual content or download links. `Page Bundles` are just folders with an `index.md` file and related assets. The `index.md` file is the main content and any files stored next to `index.md` can be easily referenced directly from `index.md`. This is particularly helpful for managing image assets and keeping them organized.
