Structuring projects
How should you structure your projects? So far, we have built small individual console apps to illustrate language or library features. In the rest of this book, we will build multiple projects using different technologies that work together to provide a single solution.
With large, complex solutions, it can be difficult to navigate amongst all the code. So, the primary reason to structure your projects is to make it easier to find components. It is good to have an overall name for your solution or workspace that reflects the application or solution.
We will build multiple projects for a fictional company named Northwind. We will name the solution or workspace PracticalApps and use the name Northwind as a prefix for all the project names.
There are many ways to structure and name projects and solutions, for example, using a folder hierarchy as well as a naming convention. If you work in a team, make sure you know how your team does it.
