How to organize files and folders for easy project synchronization?

Question

Windows

I work on a desktop computer at home and on a laptop at work. Both machines are running Windows and Linux. Thinking about how to organize the layout of projects so that:
1. Projects are synchronized through my cloud.
2. It was possible to run projects on the local server
3. The path to the files was minimal.

Answer 1

Dropbox.
The folder is synchronized, all projects are in it.
To keep the path minimal, you need to mount the dropbox folder - or even individual subfolders - as virtual drives.
For example, my dropbox folder itself is lying around in d:\Dropbox, it is also mounted as an i: drive, and child folders can be mounted as you like, for example:
d:\Dropbox\Music = m:
d:\Dropbox\Photo = p:
If you have projects, it is logical for convenience to call them code names with different letters, and mount them on the disk corresponding to the first letter of the name. So you will have the shortest and most memorable path.
Ways to mount a folder as a drive under Windows are obvious - classic subst, gui shells for it of the vSubst type, classic Windows DOSDEVICES in the registry.
Another option is BoxCryptor Classic, it can be set on any folder, and it will encrypt it, and when you enter the password, it will connect it as a drive with the specified letter. Useful for storing confidential information. The free version does not encrypt filenames and is for personal use only. There is also for Linux. Not to be confused with BoxCryptor which is NOT classic.
Under Linux, I think it's not more difficult.

Answer 2

I don't quite understand what the problem is.
Dropbox and set up web servers (well, hosts files, of course) on both machines.
