- TMSU: TMSU lets you tags your files and then access them through a nifty virtual filesystem from any other application.
- Is it possible to "tag" files and folders with various tags like "javascript" or "bash"? Arranging files into tree shaped folder schemas is time intensive and error prone. I'd like to just tag stuff and search by tags instead of browsing by folder

Is there something like org roam but for files?
Checkout https://github.com/oniony/TMSU if it may help. It does not have (bidirectional) links, only tags. Personally, I try to log things I create and search my log file.

Linux Distros Should Implement A Labels/Tags Feature
Tons of programs and different DEs do this already. KDE does this with Dolphin, and check out TMSU. Or just do it yourself with extended attributes which is used by SELinux. It's great that you have this excitement, but Google before you write.
- Is there any way I can tag my files on linux through command line?

Flag files/directories somehow
but I would first try https://github.com/oniony/TMSU -- especiall -- the readme says it allows a fuse style mounting of all tagged files, which is pretty cool for what you want, if it works without any gotchas!

tss, tags in file names
Take a file. Add [awesome] to the name. There. You've tagged a file, and you can search for it with your desktop search / fzf / etc. Switch system, copy it anywhere, it works. You can do this by hand. Or, if you like clicks and drag-n-drop, use TagSpaces. Or, use tss.

Everything that uses configuration files should report where they're located
The UNIX filesystem has traditionally been a graph for ever. I haven't looked at details for a couple of decades, but definitely all UNIX/POSIX/Linux filesystems operate on a graph model.
A distinction I used to make when I was teaching this stuff: on your filesystem tree, on Unix names (labels) are on the links (arrows), while on DOS/Windows names are on nodes (boxes).
If you want to explore a tag-based system, take a look at https://www.tagspaces.org/

how do you organize nonfiction literature that you have an ebook, audiobook and maybe some worksheets and videos?
If the naming convention is different, or you'd prefer to go the tagging route, tagspaces may be your best bet. It can use standard tags in the file, or a sidecar file (file with the same name, but different extension next to the original file) to keep tags with the file.

workspaces - Workspaces app for linux elementaryos gtk
WikiSuite - An HTML5 management interface for KVM guests
webdav - Simple Go WebDAV server.
OpenMediaVault - openmediavault is the next generation network attached storage (NAS) solution based on Debian Linux. Thanks to the modular design of the framework it can be enhanced via plugins. openmediavault is primarily designed to be used in home environments or small home offices.
gnome-hud - Unity like HUD menu for the GNOME Desktop Environment using rofi menu.
hydrus - A personal booru-style media tagger that can import files and tags from your hard drive and popular websites. Content can be shared with other users via user-run servers.
