Best way to save your codes so that you can read them later?

Check out Git[0]. Using a version control system is a critical skill in modern software development where you can check a "blame" report on a file's contents to see what last touched that place or to check a log for a history of the software. As for the quality of your notes and commit messages, that is alas something that requires a more personal development.

You can also put each project into its own Git repository and throw it up on a site like GitHub to host it.

I'll do that as well, but what's the difference between saving in folders like I did vs in git for my purpose(which is to revise the codes later on, look at them and get new insights). Currently the code is so blabbered that IDK why I wrote that, IDK when I wrote, IDK in what context I wrote. That's the worst way to store codes for learning. that's given from my experience. Maybe just me.
