# File and Directory Org.

> This document outlines the structure and organization of files and directories in the Formbricks codebase, providing guidelines for maintaining consistency and clarity across the project.

## Project Structure Overview

The Formbricks codebase follows a monorepo structure using pnpm workspaces, with two main directories:

* `apps/` - Contains full applications

* `packages/` - Contains shared libraries and utilities

## Apps Directory

The `apps/` directory contains complete applications:

### apps/web/

* Main Formbricks web application (Next.js)

* Primary application with full feature set

* Uses App Router architecture

* Contains environment-specific settings and configurations

### apps/demo/

* Demo application (Next.js)

* Showcases Formbricks in-product surveying functionality

* Used for testing and demonstration purposes

### apps/demo-react-native/

* React Native demo app (React Native)

* Demonstrates mobile integration capabilities

* Example implementation for React Native

### apps/storybook/

* Component documentation

* Visual documentation of UI components

* Testing environment for isolated components

## Packages Directory

The `packages/` directory contains shared libraries and utilities:

### packages/js-core/

* Contains core functionality for in-product surveys

* Shared logic between different SDK implementations

* Base classes and utilities

### packages/js/

* JavaScript SDK for browser-based applications

* Used for running surveys on websites and web apps (browser)

* Public NPM package

### packages/react-native/

* React Native SDK

* Used to run surveys in mobile apps built with React Native / Expo

* Includes native platform adaptations

### packages/lib/

* Shared business logic

* Shared utilities and helpers

### packages/types/

* TypeScript type definitions

* Zod schemas for validation

### packages/database/

* Database schemas and migrations

* Prisma schema definitions

* Migration management

### packages/surveys/

* Survey-specific functionality

* Survey rendering logic and UI components

* Survey state management

## Module Organization

### Core Module Structure

Each feature module follows a consistent structure:

```
modules/
└── ee/
├── insights/
│ ├── components/
│ ├── experience/
│ └── types/
└── contacts/
├── segments/
└── components/
```

## Adding New Code

### New Features

When adding new features, follow these guidelines:

1. **Determine Scope**:

   * Complete application → `apps/`

   * Shared library → `packages/`

   * Feature for existing app → appropriate module in `apps/web/modules/`

2. **Module Creation**:
   Create a new module with the standard structure:

   ```
   modules/
   └── your-feature/
       ├── components/    # React components
       ├── lib/           # Business logic
       ├── types/         # TypeScript types
       ├── actions.ts     # Server actions
       └── route.ts       # API routes
   ```

3. **Component Organization**:

   * Base UI components → `modules/ui/components/`

   * Feature-specific components → `modules/[feature]/components/`

## Best Practices

### Code Organization

* Keep modules focused and single-purpose

* Maintain clear separation between UI and business logic

* Use proper TypeScript interfaces and types

### File Structure

* Group related files in descriptive directories

* Use consistent naming patterns

* Keep files focused and modular

### Module Independence

* Minimize dependencies between modules

* Share common utilities through appropriate packages

* Maintain clear module boundaries

### Documentation

* Document complex logic and APIs as laid out in the [Documentation](/development/standards/practices/documentation) section

* Keep documentation current with code changes

## Testing Organization

### Test File Location

* Test files should be located alongside the code they test

* Use `.test.ts` or `.spec.ts` suffix for test files

* Example: `user-service.test.ts` for `user-service.ts`

### Test Directory Structure

```
feature/
├── tests/ # Test directory (if grouping tests)
├── components/ # Feature components
└── lib/ # Business logic
```

## Configuration Files

### Root Level Configuration

* `.eslintrc.js` - ESLint configuration

* `tsconfig.json` - TypeScript configuration

* `package.json` - Package metadata and scripts

* `.env` - Environment variables

### Package Level Configuration

Each package maintains its own configuration files:

* `package.json` - Package-specific dependencies and scripts

* `tsconfig.json` - Package-specific TypeScript settings

* `.eslintrc.js` - Package-specific linting rules

## Version Control

### Git Organization

* `.gitignore` - Specifies ignored files and directories

* `.github/` - GitHub specific configurations and workflows

* `CHANGELOG.md` - Documents version changes

* `LICENSE` - License information

## Conclusion

Following these organizational patterns ensures:

* Consistent code structure across the project

* Easy navigation and maintenance

* Clear separation of concerns

* Scalable architecture for future growth

Remember to maintain these patterns when adding new code to keep the codebase organized and maintainable.
