It all started with SharePoint 2010. To maintain the performance of a document library (and the servers behind the scenes), Microsoft introduced the 5,000 view item limit on a document library. What that meant was that while you could put more than 5,000 items in a single library, you could not surface up (display) more than 5,000 items on a view.

How are document IDs assigned to document sets?
Document IDs can also be assigned to Document Sets. When the Document ID service is first enabled, new documents in the site collection will automatically be assigned new IDs. A timer job is scheduled to assign IDs to documents already in the site collection.
Overall library size might be a concern (i.e.. 5,000 items view threshold limit) as all document sets/folders physically sit in same SharePoint Document Library Best for mini-projects. No ability to add additional Project Management web parts to the mini project site (document set).
SharePoint team sites include a document library by default, however, you can add additional document and other libraries to a site as needed. For more info about document libraries, see What is a document library?
There are two types available for adding a document in a SharePoint Document Library. Way 1: To click the new document link. Way 2: Click the “Upload document” menu under the FILES ribbon bar. To click and upload a document or a new document the following popup will appear.
How to publish a page layout in SharePoint?
Before you can use your page layout, it has to be published. To publish your page layout, go to Site Settings –> Master pages and page layouts. You will see two files – one is HTML and one is ASPX. in SharePoint 2013, the HTML is now the master and you can edit it using an HTML editor. SharePoint 2013 then generates the ASPX file automatically.
I have written a number of posts in previous years explaining the difference between common SharePoint entities like sites and site collections, sites and pages. Understanding those concepts above takes time, but it makes sense. The concept I will explain today takes more time to “sink in”. It is a concept of Folders vs. Document Library.
The beauty of SharePoint document sets is that it creates a dedicated page for each “folder” (behind the scenes there is an actual folder, but for the user, it looks like a web page with files). Each Document Set “page” serves as a mini-site that contains some basic information + documents themselves.
How are document libraries organized in SharePoint Maven?
On that site, they would have a few document libraries (again, think file cabinets). One for invoices, one for scanned receipts and say one for bank deposit slips. Each library would then have folders or metadata to organize the type of content they would have (invoices, receipts, deposit slips).
