Hello everybody,

 

the title says about all i want to know.

Isnt the *.iml file supposed to be located in the .idea folder? Why is it (by default) saved in the projects root folder?

 

I know i can save it wherever i want, but its just so annoying to not know why the jetbrains developers decided to do it like this.

 

Hopefully some of you know the answer, as i was not able to find any information about this.

 

Best Regards,

Philipp

 

EDIT: maybe good to mention that i mostly use IntelliJ to create WebApplications (PHP, HTML, CSS, JS...)
