Description

If it finds .vert, .frag (and .geom?) files in the data/ folder, the project generator should make a new folder, in the project file, next to (or inside) src called data/ and add the files to it. (data/ so that beginners can find the files in Finder)

Research direction

Start by locating the projectGenerator code that scans the data/ folder and writes the generated project file. Check how .vert, .frag, and possibly .geom files are handled, then verify that generated projects place those files in a visible data/ folder next to or inside src.
