Be carefull not mixing these design principles

Atomic Design breaks the UI into small reusable pieces and builds
Atoms → buttons, inputs, icons, text
Molecules → small combinations (label + input, search bar)
Organisms → complex UI blocks (forms, headers, cards)
Templates → layout without real data
Pages / Screens → real data, API calls, navigation
Feature-Based Design: Business-Oriented Structure
Feature-Based architecture organizes code around business features instead of UI types.
Layer-Based Design: Simple but Limited
Layer-Based architecture groups code by technical layers: components hooks services utils
When to use
