🔮 folder-spell

folder-spell is a folder poetry generator that came out of a conversation our TA Brian Solon and i had on the bus yesterday. It makes writing sentences with folders go very quickly.

• It creates a series of nested folders with a text file at the end.
• The first words you write after folder-spell will become a series of nested folders. The text within quotations will become the contents of a text file.
