Ask HN: Ask HN: How do you structure your code
3 by krm01 | 3 comments on Hacker News.
As my projects grow and I add more features, I've been facing challenges in maintaining a clear and well-organized codebase. It becomes increasingly difficult to navigate through the code, especially when it comes to debugging, refactoring, or adding new features. As a solo builder, it’s pretty easy to hack something together and choose speed over structure. With some of my larger projects however I start to feel the problem of all the duck tape I placed left and right. I am curious to learn from your experiences, best practices, and strategies that you follow to structure your code in a way that keeps it clean and easy to navigate as it evolves. Some specific points I am looking for: 1. How do you organize your directories and files? Do you follow any design patterns or principles (SOLID, DRY, etc.) to maintain code clarity and modularity? How do you manage dependencies between different components or modules? 2.How do you balance abstraction and simplicity while writing your code? 3. Are there any specific tools or techniques you use to visualize and understand the structure of your codebase? 4. Any examples, resources, or personal anecdotes would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for sharing your insights!
