Body

As a developer working across multiple distinct domains (such as cybersecurity, low-level computing, and game development), my GitHub profile quickly becomes cluttered. Currently, all repositories sit in a single flat list under a user profile. While topics and pinned repositories help, they do not provide a clean, high-level structural separation. Creating separate Organizations for personal hobbies is a workaround, but it fractures a developer's personal contribution graph and profile identity.
Introduce a native "Repository Folders" or "Groups" feature for user profiles. Custom Folders: Allow users to create custom folders on their profile (e.g., "Cybersecurity Labs", "Game Dev Projects", "Low-Level Systems").Drag-and-Drop Organization: Let users move their repositories into these folders to clean up their main repository tab. Nested Views: When a visitor clicks a folder, they should see only the repositories assigned to that specific domain.
This feature would allow versatile developers to present a clean, highly organized portfolio to recruiters and peers without needing to maintain multiple accounts or artificial organizations.
