ktmud edited a comment on issue #9077: [SIP-35] Proposal for Improving Superset’s Python Code Organization URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/issues/9077#issuecomment-586536501 Chime in my two cents as a passerby. I really like that different modules have their independent folders and we are introducing conventions and increasing consistency. I think an intuitive code structure and consistent paradigms help a lot for future contributors to understand the code. Sharing the approach I took in one of my older projects ([a general purpose CMS](https://github.com/ktmud/david/tree/master/david )). It's slightly different than what is proposed, but very similar in concept. All my python files are organized [like this](https://github.com/ktmud/david/tree/master/david): ``` ├── __init__.py ├── app.py ├── core/ # core data models, user accounts, base data entities etc ├── ext/ # 3rd-party/non-essential extensions, s3 uploads, etc ├── lib/ # db mixins, cache decorators, utilities ├── modules/ # modules as organized in the main menu (URL route) │ ├── __init__.py # import and compose all modules │ ├── module_1 │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ ├── admin.py # admin views, a separate Blueprint for editing objects │ │ ├── model.py # operation on data entities, objects for data access │ │ └── view.py # User facing Blueprint for "module_1", handlers parsing parameters │ ├── module_2 │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ ├── admin.py │ │ ├── model.py │ │ └── view.py ``` I find the separation of core/shared functionalities (and the addition of a "modules" folder) especially useful because it makes the whole project easier to navigate. Loading modules and booting the app is as simple as [this](https://github.com/ktmud/david/blob/master/david/ext/modules.py). It seems we can avoid `boot.py` this way. Hope this helps.
