I'm looking to implement backbone into a large web project with multiple "apps" that will be using it and I'm trying to figure out a good way to organize my files. The two I've come up with so far are:
js
+- models
| +- search
| | +- result.js
| | +- ...
| +- cart
| | +- item.js
| | +- ...
| ...
+- collections
| +- search
| | +- results.js
| | +- ...
| +- cart
| | +- items.js
| | +- ...
| ...
+- views
| +- search
| | +- resultRow.js
| | +- ...
| +- cart
| | +- itemRow.js
| | +- ...
| ...
+- routers
| +- search
| +- cart
| ...
And
js
+- search
| +- models
| | +- result.js
| | +- ...
| ...
| +- collections
| | +- results.js
| | +- ...
| ...
| +- views
| | +- resultRow.js
| | +- ...
+- cart
| +- models
| | +- item.js
| | +- ...
| ...
| +- collections
| | +- items.js
| | +- ...
| ...
| +- views
| | +- itemRow.js
| | +- ...
+- routers
| +- search
| +- cart
| ...
I'm leaning towards the latter as it has clearer lines between sections of the website and keeps the apps together but our current structure of the back-end framework is much more like the former.
