Build a real hierarchy
Create a semester folder, add courses inside it, then organize each course by module, week, or topic.
Organize your library
Use nested folders for courses, modules, and topics
A growing study library should match the way your course is actually structured. Build folders inside folders so lectures, readings, assignments, and revision topics stay easy to find.
Keep the structure of a semester without flattening everything into one long list.

Questions
Know exactly what the feature does.
Can BrainDen create folders inside other folders?
Yes. Nested folders let you represent structures such as semester, course, module, week, and lecture.
Can I share a folder rather than every note separately?
Yes. A folder can be shared by one link so its directly contained notes appear together in the public view.
Do links between notes still work across folders?
Yes. Notes can be linked across the library, and backlinks make those relationships visible from either note.
