If it is an existing project I stick with the format whether it is MVC, MVVM, or just homerolled. If it's a new one I am making I will consider whatever is a common pattern for that ecosystem. Ultimately code/projects are typically shared so the approach I think of would be, "What would make others successful working in this and understanding this?" Key files would be a centralized configuration file. A version control ignore file for sensitive files.
