+- **Data**: Persistent application data (`user_data_dir`, `site_data_dir`)
+- **Config**: Configuration files and settings (`user_config_dir`, `site_config_dir`)
+- **Cache**: Cached data that can be regenerated (`user_cache_dir`, `site_cache_dir`)
+- **State**: Non-essential runtime state like window positions (`user_state_dir`, `site_state_dir`)
+- **Logs**: Log files (`user_log_dir`, `site_log_dir`)

-Maintaining an open source project is no easy task, particularly from within an organization, and the Python community

-module, as evidenced by the wide number of users it has attracted over the years.
