One day this will become the intro page for the online reference of openlilylib. For now we use this page to display/shape the new directory structure.

I think that the current way we organize the directory structure in the library won't scale well. We already have too many top-level directories, and particularly it's often not clear at all where new snippets should be placed. So I think we should reconsider our structure. Specifically we should consider the perspective of the includable library: What would be a natural path to include a snippet in a document (or style sheet), not only how to find a snippet in the Github interface.

This is the current directory structure (at least on master):

• custom-music-fonts
  • LilyJAZZ (not-working yet?)
  • smufl (at version 1.0!)
• debugging-layout
  This is somewhat outdated and maybe conflicting with the Frescobaldi version (?)
  • some of the "layout control options"
  • original-breaks
    (belongs to editorial-tools IMO)
• editorial-tools
  • auto-transpose
  • edition-engraver
  • git-commands
  • line-break-marks
  • merge-rests-engraver
• (fried-library-to-be-sorted)
• general-tools
  • includeHelper
  • lilypond-version-predicates
  • readComment
  • scheme-wrapper
• input-shorthands
  • articulations-not-aligned-with-notes
  • easy-custom-dynamics
  • easy-octaves
  • fuzzy-scale
  • ignore-collisions
  • optional-chord
  • sizeContext
  • vertical-spacing
  • (late-evaluation-of-variables.ly)

  This should not be part of the includable library
