I’ve mostly been putting functions, structs enums and tests in the same file and it’s starting to feel like a mess… I am constantly losing track of which function is where and I’m never quite sure if I have code in the right place. I know this is kind of vague, but that’s been my general feeling while working in my largest personal project so far. It’s essentially a large Algorithm that has many smaller steps that needs to run in a sequence.

I think I might just have too many loose functions and maybe I should use more impl methods and traits? I’m also thinking I should try the builder pattern in a few spots.

Anyone have any guidance on code organization in rust?

    The book has pretty good details on this. If you’re looking for how to actually scope modules, do some googling for package or library composition ideas. That’s a pattern that’s consistent across languages.
