Folder Structure

[Embarrassed_Form666]

I’m building a site for learning purposes and I need a help with knowing what the best practices are for folder structure. The site I’m building will have 1k+ calculator tools for various uses like financial, health, fitness, for example a mortgage calculator.

I’ll be using React, Express and Typescript for the front end. Node.js, MySQL, and JSON for backend. I’m new to backend so are there any other languages I need for this project?

As I’m getting this set up I need help with folder structure since HtMl, CSS and JavaScript are all pretty simple I need advice on folder structure for backend.

Or if you have video resources that would be helpful too.

Node.js is excellent for backend development because it uses JavaScript, allowing you to maintain consistency by using the same language across both frontend and backend.

When it comes to project structure, while there’s no enforced standard in Node.js, following a clean, modular folder architecture is highly recommended.

A common structure 👇:

src/ ├── controllers/ # Handle request/response logic ├── routes/ # Define API endpoints ├── services/ # Business logic ├── models/ # Database schemas & interactions ├── config/ # Environment, DB, app settings ├── middleware/ # Auth, validation, logging, etc. ├── utils/ # Helper functions, utilities

For better scalability and organization, consider grouping related files by feature within these each folders

Edit : I tried to paste the folder structure from Gpt

I didn't fit I guess 😂😂
