This skill helps teams organize codebases by enforcing clear folder structures and colocated components, reducing confusion and onboarding time.
Start by choosing an organization approach (feature-based, layer-based, or monorepo) and create top-level directories accordingly. Place related files next to each other (colocation) and keep tests beside source files. Document the chosen structure in a README so the team follows it consistently.

Organize a monorepo by separating top-level apps/ and packages/ directories to support multiple platforms while sharing utilities and types. This layout reduces duplication and keeps shared dependencies consistent across different applications within the same repository.
Organize frontend and backend codebases by enforcing colocated layouts that group related components, hooks, and tests next to each other. Choose feature-based grouping under src/features or layer-based separation across controllers, services, and models to reduce cognitive load.
Set up feature-based folder organization by creating directories under src/features and grouping related components, hooks, and tests inside each feature folder. Keep tests beside source files to reduce cognitive load and speed up team onboarding.
Use layer-based architecture instead of feature-based organization when separating code by technical layers like controllers, services, models, routes, and middleware. This approach codifies conventions for technical responsibilities rather than grouping by business features.
Colocation works for both source files and tests by keeping them placed next to each other within the chosen folder structure. Whether using feature-based, layer-based, or monorepo architectures, colocating tests beside sources reduces cognitive load and speeds up onboarding.
