This section contains details of how novelWriter stores and handles the project data.
This chapter contains details of how novelWriter stores and handles the project data.
Project Structure
=================
All novelWriter files are written with utf-8 encoding. Since Python automatically converts Unix
line endings to Windows line endings on Windows systems, and vice versa, novelWriter does not make
any adaptations to the formatting on Windows systems. This is handled entirely by the Python
standard library. Python also handles this when working on the same files on both Windows and
Unix-based operating systems.

Main Project File
-----------------
The project itself requires a dedicated folder for storing its files, where novelWriter will create
its own "file system" where the folder and file hierarchy is described in a project XML file. This
is the main project file in the project's root folder with the name ``nwProject.nwx``. This file
also contains all the meta data required for the project (except the index data), and a number of
related project settings.

If this file is lost or corrupted, the structure of the project is lost, although not the text
itself. It is important to keep this file backed up, either through the built-in backup tool, or
