I am new to IntelliJ and I am using it to create a Spring Boot application. I have the following project structure:
I need to create a "css" directory underneath the "static" directory underneath the "resources" directory, so I can put in there the CSS files I want to use in my Thymeleaf web page templates.
I then tried to add a "css" sub-directory by right-clicking on the "static" directory and using the New -> Directory dialog. Instead of ending up with a sub-directory called "css" under "static", it renamed "static" to "static.css", as shown below.
Given the little dot on the folder icons, it almost feels like IntelliJ is treating those folders as Java packages instead of actual file folders. What is the proper way with IntelliJ to create a sub-directory under the "static" directory?
