What file structure makes the most sense to you?

#discuss #react #programming

File structuring seems to be one of those overly debated topics, to the point where even the React documentation advises not to stress out over it.

That being said, for any project it does help a mighty amount to have a file structure that makes it easier for you to navigate.

I primarily use React, so I'll share a peak into the source of my React projects with some example files. For the components folder, organizing it according to Brad Frost's Atomic Design enables me to think like an architect as I build out UIs.
