A script that organizes files based on their extensions. It scans a specified source directory for files and moves them to destination folders according to their file types. The script categorizes files into groups such as documents, images, and videos, and then moves them to their respective folders. Additionally, it provides error handling to manage any issues that may arise during the organization process.
✔️ Reading files: The code reads files from specified source directory;
✔️ Filtering by Extension: For each extension in the extensions object, it filters files in the source directory based on the extension;
✔️ Moving Files: It moves files to different destination folders (documents, pictures, videos) based on their extension;
✔️ Error handling: The try...catch block capture errors that may occur during the file moving process, providing a more robust error handling mechanism;
