A well-organized project structure is essential for maintainable and scalable codebases. Here's a standard layout for software projects:

  1. Core Code

    • Located in the src/ directory
    • Contains source files, modules, and main application logic
    project_structure_diagram
  2. Static Assets

    • Stored in public/ for CSS, JS, and images
    • Ensures separation from dynamic code
    directory_tree
  3. Testing Framework

    • Unit tests in test/ directory
    • Integration tests may reside in a subfolder
    file_organization
  4. Documentation
