Where Does Giada Store Config and Projects?
Giada loop machine conf, logs and project folders per desktop OS.
Last updated
Giada keeps one conf per OS root with logs and langmaps beside it. Projects save as folders wherever chosen with JSON plus samples inside. Docs list all three roots explicitly.
Legacy Linux dot paths predate current builds. Modern layout follows config home. Keep conf plus project folders together.

Frequently asked questions
How do I back up Giada?
Copy the conf file with the app closed. Projects save as folders wherever chosen. Restoring means putting the conf back plus each project dir.
Dot folder or XDG paths?
Legacy dot folders predate XDG builds on Linux. Current paths follow config home with log and langmaps beside. Trust the modern trio.
