Teach Emacs to Keep Your Folders Clean
System Crafters
In this video, we'll learn how to keep Emacs from cluttering up folders with temporary files it creates for backups, auto save information, and the configuration stored by other packages like Projectile and lsp-mode. First we'll learn the necessary variables you will want to set to do this yourself and then we'll try a community package called no-littering that will do a lot of the work for you!
Check out the configuration from this video here: https://github.com/daviwil/emacs-from-scratch/blob/a57d99ba80276926a2b68521f9a9d23dc173a628/Emacs.org#keep-folders-clean
