React Project Structure

  A correct React project structure is fundamental for maintaining the scalability, organization, and ease of maintenance of your application.

Basic Project Organization

  A typical React project structure includes the following main elements:

• src/: Contains all the application's source code, including components, styles, and business logic.
• public/: Static files served directly to the client, such as images and the index.html file.
• package.json: Contains project information, scripts, and dependencies.
• node_modules/: Automatically generated folder with all installed dependencies.

Subfolders within src/

  To maintain organization, it's common to divide the content of src/ into several subfolders:

• components/: Reusable application components, such as buttons, cards, etc.
• pages/: Contains the main pages of the application.
• styles/: CSS files or preprocessors like SCSS.
• utils/: Utility functions and shared logic.
• hooks/: Custom hooks to encapsulate reusable logic.
• contexts/: React contexts for global state management.
• assets/: Static files like images, icons, and fonts.

  This organization ensures that each piece of the application has its place, which improves maintainability and scalability.
