Brainstorm: Code organization and complexity management

[ClickerMonkey]

As an application becomes more complex - what is the best way to manage it?

• The folder/file structure we have now might not be ideal. Something graphical - like a supplemental mind map could improve it.
• The current structure also organizes code into one place - there could be several routes to the code.
• Maybe you can explore code through different perspectives depending on the entry/input point in the application.
• Maybe searching through code the traditional way of searching and clicking is inefficient. Sometimes you want to search based on something that isn't captured in the function name or directly in the code - and you could specify metadata on code to make it searchable. This relies on people to do it and keep it up to date - like comments. Maybe not a great idea?
