Creating Folders and Grouping Run/Debug Configurations
When there are too many run/debug configurations of the same type, you can put them into directories, and thus make them visually distinguishable.
Folders are used to organize run/debug configurations. When not needed, they can be deleted, and the run/debug configurations grouped under those folders will be moved under the root of the corresponding run/debug configuration type.
Once grouped, the run/debug configurations appear in the drop-down list under the corresponding folders.
