• /pages: This folder contains all the page components of your application. Each page component corresponds to a route.

• /components: This folder contains all the components which are unique and may or may not utilise files from the components/ui directory.

• /components/ui: This sub-folder inside the components directory houses reusable UI components like buttons, text inputs, and other UI elements.

• /hooks: Custom React hooks used throughout the application are placed in this folder. This helps in reusing logic and maintaining clean code.

• /services: Contains all services that the application consumes, such as API calls, context providers, and state management setups.

• /utils: This folder includes utility functions and helpers that do not fall into the other categories but are still essential for the operation of the application.
