Hi All,

I want to know what is the best practice or how everyone organises there 
javascript files. I initially use to just embed all my js in the html file but 
that gets messy quick. Now I create an application.js file that I reference on 
all pages. This is slightly better but often there is code only specific to a 
page. Do you guys embed that in the html page?


This will probably all kinds of styles, I don't think there any best practices 
specific to js though. Here's what I do.

Every object get's a file of its own. Capitalized, to make clear it's about an 
object (and not some initialization code, or whatever). If more complex 
inheritance or if modules are used, I'll apply a folder structure that reflects 
this. For any web project, all the js files go in a js (sub)folder (likewise, 
the css goes in a css folder).

What about specific jQuery or your library uses for a particular page?
