# Folders & Lists

> Organize your workspace with folders and standalone lists.

Folders help you group related lists together, for example by project, team, or phase. Lists can also exist on their own, without a folder, for lightweight organization.

## Create a folder

Click the **+** button next to **Folders & Lists** in the sidebar, then choose **Add Folder**. Enter a name, pick an icon and color, then save.

## Create a standalone list

Click the **+** button next to **Folders & Lists** in the sidebar, then choose **Add List**. Give the list a name and optionally assign it to a folder. Leave the folder field empty to create a standalone list that appears directly in the sidebar.

## Add lists inside a folder

When creating or editing a list, choose a folder to place it in. You can also right-click (or long-press on mobile) on a folder and select **Add List** to create a new list directly inside that folder. Additionally, a **+** icon appears when hovering over any folder row in the sidebar.

## Reorder folders

1. Go to **Settings > Folders**.
2. Drag folders up or down to change the order they appear in the sidebar.

<Tip>
  Use folders to separate major initiatives, and standalone lists for quick or
  cross-cutting collections of tasks.
