Make project beginner friendly

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

So, when I was jumping around the code I was overwhelmed with where exactly is what. It took me some time to figure out what folder contains what and this could be overwhelming for a lot of developers if they are jumping right into it because there is no way around it other than getting your hands dirty.

Describe the solution you'd like

I propose a solution to add a section in the documentation where the project structure is explained with easy one-liners to understand what exactly that folder/file contains. You can click here to see the project structure heading example of how it would look.

Thankyou for this issue. We are working towards integrating the bridge in tech backend and the mentorship system backend. This should make the project easier to setup.

@manthan109 hey you can read this blog post or this google doc to know more about the project:)
Also the issues labelled as first-timers only here are a great start 🚀

@manthan109 , if you're proposing to add the file/folder structure to README as per your example, IMO it will be unnecessary since contributors can see them on the repo (above README). Perhaps you can add something like this diagram but a much simpler version. Although, as @epicadk mentioned, when we fully integrate BIT backend to MS backend, the diagram will no longer be needed, so this temporary addition will be short lived.

I think we could still have a simple structure of the folder, not too deep, just high-level (2 levels max) folder structure.
I am looking at @manthan109 suggestion https://github.com/Manthan109/XMeme#folder-structure, so nothing too big, but that gives an idea of the structure of the app (e.g.: where marshmallow schemas as located, and where db models are).
I also think the diagram anitab-org/mentorship-backend#530 can be a little hard to read 🤔 I would say we can try it out on mentorship backend, however on docusaurus sections 🤔

something like this, without mentioning the files (i.e., that are not frequently changed such as *_extension.py files):

[mtreacy002]

Makes sense, @isabelcosta . @manthan109 , I'll assign you to this now. Please refer to @isabelcosta suggestions on your approach to this issue 😉

@isabelcosta So, If I have understood right I have to add the file structure as I did in my project up to 2 levels and add this to the docusaurus documentation but on mentorship backend and not on bridge-in-tech backend?

@manthan109 any updates?
