And by assets, just in case it is a moronic term, I mean CSS,
JavaScript, images, server-side includes et cetera.
Primarily I am worried about just the CSS, JavaScript, and image aspect.
I've always for example, separated, layout and positioning from say
style or how elements should look. So for each "theme" I might have 2
CSS files. They would go into a directory like /theme/theme_name/css
The images for each theme would then be in /images in the theme_name
directory. Same with JavaScript (/js).
However, I was looking at a nicely designed site just a few moments ago
and saw structure like this:
/res/js/submodal/submodal.js
/cm/ad_popunder.js
/res/css/submodal/submodal.css
/res/css/splash.css
/res/img/splash/backToSchool.jpg
So, I guess I can understand "res" being resources and "cm" being
content management maybe, but doesn't this structure seem a little
involved? I mean, you edit an image and you have to backtrack to /res/
then image and so on. Same with the CSS and JavaScripts being in
numerous directories.
It was http://www.greatschools.net/ for anyone interested. Gotta' get
my children registered for classes!
So, boring and long rambling story over. What do *you* professionals do?
