Generate recommended project folder structures for different frameworks and architectures. Copy as text or create commands.

A project structure visualization is a tree-like representation of your directory and file hierarchy, formatted with indentation and connecting lines (such as Unicode box-drawing characters). It gives anyone looking at your project — from new team members to open-source contributors — an immediate bird's-eye view of how your code is organized without needing to clone the repository and explore it locally.
Clear project structure documentation is invaluable for onboarding. When a new developer joins your team, a well-documented folder structure answers the "where does this go?" question instantly: where to find components, where utilities live, how features are grouped, and what the naming conventions are. It also helps during architecture discussions and code reviews when you need to reference the overall layout.
This tool lets you either paste an existing directory listing, manually build your structure interactively, or start from a pre-built template for popular frameworks (Next.js, Express, Django, etc.). The output is formatted as a clean ASCII tree that you can drop into your README, documentation site, or project wiki.
