Whats in your new project folder?

  • I'm trying to put together a blank starting folder to use for new projects and was looking for suggestions on what I should include in this folder.

    As it stands now, I have a blank HTML file with links to a style.css, a JavaScript folder, and Google's jQuery lib link.

    My CSS file has a basic reset using Eric Meyers reset as a starting point and changing as needed, along with some basic toolbox type classes I have been using.

    My JavaScript folder is empty and scripts get added as needed.

    Lastly I have a empty images folder.

    Just wondering what you use as a basic starting point for a new project.
  • well it all depends on what you are going to do for the site....

    but basically:
    main directory
    |---------------Images directory
    |---------------Script directory
    |
    |---------------index.html
    |---------------style.css

    but as your project grows so might your directories, pages, css sheets, scripts
  • I'm pretty similar to you guys:

    [list]index.html
    images
    js
    css[/list:u]

    sometimes if it's a PHP site:

    [list]includes
    db-interaction[/list:u]

    occasionally:

    [list]downloads[/list:u]

    I really really try to keep the home directory as clean as I can. I despise it when I start having to scroll in Coda to see everything at the root level.
  • index.html
    images
    script
    style

    PHP
    index.php
    images
    script
    style

    In CodeIgniter, it's all stored within the view. Same with RoR.

    EDIT
    Same as Chris. I hate to have to scroll my root in E.
