Mobile App Navigation Structure

This Folder Structure was derived due to the neccessity of colocating navigation logic with screens

  app/
  │ (only one allowed at root )
  ├── stack.tsx # Stack navigation logic
  ├── drawer.tsx # Drawer navigation logic
  ├── tabs.tsx # Tab navigation logic
  │
  ├── screens/ # Folder containing all screen files and folders
  │ ├── Home.tsx # A screen represented as a file
  │ ├── Profile/ # A screen represented as a folder
  │ │ ├── stack.tsx # Stack navigation for Profile section (only one allowed at root)
  │ │ └── screens/
  │      ├── [id].tsx # Dynamic screen for Profile section (e.g., User ID)
  │      ├── Edit.tsx # Static screen for Profile editing
  │ └── Settings.tsx # Another screen as a file

Key Rules

  1. Root Level of Folders:
    • At the root level of any folder, there can only be one of the following:
      • stack.tsx
      • tabs.tsx
      • drawer.tsx
    • These files define the navigation logic for that section.
  2. Screen Files:
    • Screens can be either a file (React component) or a folder containing its own navigation logic.
    • If a folder is used, it must contain one of the navigation files (stack.tsx, tabs.tsx, or drawer.tsx) at its root.
  3. Dynamic Routes:
    • Use Next.js-style conventions for dynamic routes.
    • Example: In the Profile folder, you can define a dynamic route with [id].tsx to create a dynamic profile screen for each user.
  4. Subfolders for Screens:
    • Any folder that represents a screen must also contain a screens/ subfolder to hold additional screens under that navigation.

Example

  • Profile Folder:
    • Contains stack.tsx for managing stack-based navigation.
    • Has a screens subfolder containing the actual screens, such as [id].tsx for a dynamic profile and Edit.tsx for profile editing.
Profile/
├── stack.tsx        # Stack navigation at the root
└── screens/
    ├── [id].tsx     # Dynamic screen for profile based on user ID
    └── Edit.tsx     # Static screen for editing profile
