Project Structure

Overview

This document provides an overview of the folder structure used in this React project. The goal is to organize the codebase in a way that is scalable, maintainable, and easy to navigate.

Structure

├── public
│   ├── fonts
│   ├── images
│   ├──   ├── general
│   ├──   └── [...page]
│   └── locale
├── src
│   ├── app
│   ├── context
│   ├── component
│   ├── hooks
│   ├── pages
│   ├──   └── [...page]
│   ├── services
│   ├── types
│   └──   └── [...page].d.ts
│   └── utils
└── App.css
└── App.tsx

1. public/

The public directory contains static assets that are served directly by the server.

  • images/: Contains image files used in the application.
    • general/: Stores images that are shared between multiple pages.
    • signIn/: Contains images specific to the SignIn page. Similar folders will be created for other pages as needed.
  • fonts/: Holds custom fonts used in the project.
  • locale/: Stores localization files for internationalization (i18n) support.

1.1 images/

This folder contains reusable components that can be used throughout the application.

  • general/: Images that are shared across multiple pages.
  • [...page]/: Contains images specific to the page.

Example:

 images
 ├── general
 ├── signIn // signIn page images in this folder
 └── ...similarly for other pages

2. src/

The src directory contains the source code of the application.

├── src
│   ├── app
│   ├── context
│   ├── component
│   ├── hooks
│   ├── services
│   ├── types
│   └── utils
└── ....

2.1 app/

This folder uses the NextJs App Router[link here] folder structure for all the pages and contains the root component that sets up the basic view of the application.

Note: We are using React Router for navigation and NextJs App Router folder structure is used for easier visualization of navigation while building the application.

2.2 context/

This folder is for managing global state using React Context. It contains files that set up contexts and providers for sharing state across the app between more than one page.

2.3 component/

This folder contains reusable components that can be used throughout the application.

2.4 hooks/

Custom React hooks are stored here. Hooks encapsulate reusable logic that can be shared across multiple components.

2.5 pages/

This folder contains components that represent different pages or views in the application. Each page can have its own context, component,hook,service utils and type.d.ts file or directory.

Example:

 pages/
 ├── signIn // signIn page view component in this folder
 │   ├── context
 │   ├── component
 │   ├── hooks
 │   ├── services
 │   ├── types.d.ts
 │   └── utils
 ├── main // main page view components in this folder
 ├── notFound // main page view components in this folder
 ├── profile // main page view components in this folder
 └── ...similarly for other pages

2.6 services/

This folder is for services that handle data fetching, authentication, and other business logic that can be shared across the application.

  • API clients: Axios, Fetch API, or custom implementations for interacting with external APIs.

  • Data management: Functions for fetching, storing, and updating data (e.g., using Redux, Context API, or custom state management solutions).

  • Authentication and authorization: Logic for handling user authentication and authorization (e.g., using JWT tokens or OAuth).

  • Error handling: Centralized error handling functions or classes.

  • Third-party integrations: Functions for integrating with external services (e.g., payment gateways, analytics tools).

Example:

src/
  services/
    authService.js
    dataService.js
    paymentService.js

Note: The specific contents of these folders will vary depending on the project's requirements and architecture. The goal is to organize code in a way that is logical, reusable, and maintainable.

2.7 types/

This folder contains TypeScript type definitions, interfaces, and types used across the project.

Example:

 types
 ├── user.d.ts
 ├── project.d.ts
 └── ... types shared between other pages

2.8 utils/

This folder contains utility functions and helpers that are used across the application.

utils Folder

  • Utility functions: General-purpose functions for common tasks like formatting data, validating inputs, or handling browser features.

  • Custom hooks: Reusable React hooks for encapsulating common logic.

  • Constants: Centralized constants or configuration values.

  • Helpers: Functions or classes that assist in specific tasks, such as handling form submissions or managing local storage.

  • Testing helpers: Functions or utilities used for testing, like mocking or testing data generation.

src/
  services/
    authService.js
    dataService.js
    paymentService.js
  utils/
    formatters.js
    validators.js
    constants.js
    customHook.js

3. Root Files

  • App.css: Contains global styles for the application.
  • App.tsx: The root component that sets up the basic structure of the application.

Best Practices

  • Component Reusability: Aim to create small, reusable components to reduce duplication.
  • Separation of Concerns: Keep logic, styles, and component structure separated for easier maintenance.
  • Consistency: Follow consistent naming conventions and folder structures throughout the project.
