Let's break down the typical project structure of an SPFx web part that uses React:
Let's explain each part:
config/: Contains the configuration files for your project, including config.json which stores the configuration settings for different environments.
src/: This directory contains all the source files for your project.
src/webparts/: Contains subdirectories for each web part in your solution.
src/webparts/myWebPart/: The directory for your specific web part.
components/: This directory contains React components used by the web part.
MyWebPart.module.scss: SCSS file for styling the web part. This is where you define styles using CSS Modules.
MyWebPartWebPart.manifest.json: Manifest file for the web part. It contains metadata about the web part, such as its title, description, and properties.
MyWebPartWebPart.ts: The main TypeScript file for your web part. This is where you define the web part class and its behavior.
node_modules/: Contains all the npm packages installed for your project.
package.json: The npm package file. It contains metadata about your project and lists all the dependencies.
tsconfig.json: TypeScript configuration file. It specifies compiler options and project settings for TypeScript.
tslint.json: TSLint configuration file. It specifies the linting rules and settings for your project.
This structure provides a clear separation of concerns, with each web part having its own directory containing its components, styles, and configuration files. It follows best practices for SPFx development and allows for easy maintenance and scalability of the project.
