As the code is OS agnostic and focuses on CLI not GUI the tutorial starts off making directories and later switches between folder/directory terminology.

I didn't even know there was a difference! I thought they were (more or less) interchangeable and that "folder" was only derived from the graphics used on many (all?) systems with a graphical interface.

That is exactly true. But they are rarely referred to as folders in regards to the command line.
