# How to Organize Internal Projects Into Folders

To **organize internal projects into folders**, you group the tables and apps belonging to one process together. It sounds trivial until a workspace holds fifty of them.

## Why workspaces become unnavigable

Internal platforms grow one useful tool at a time, and nobody stops to reorganize.

- Tables from unrelated processes listed side by side
- New users unable to tell which tools belong together
- The same process spread across items nobody groups
- Search used as the only navigation method

## What to group together

| Folder            | What goes in it                                           |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Financial BPO** | Suppliers, accounts payable, and the apps built on them   |
| **HR**            | Vacancies, candidates, employees, vacation, reimbursement |
| **Purchasing**    | Projects, requests, quotes, and the purchasing dashboard  |

## How to configure it in Jestor

1. Enable build mode in **Jestor** — the create-folder button is hidden while it is off.
2. Open the folders area and create a folder for the process.
3. Create it empty if the tables do not exist yet, then build inside it.
4. Move existing tables and apps into the folder as the process grows.
5. Add a navigation block on the app's home page pointing to the main entry points.

## Why choose Jestor for workspace organization?

**Jestor** treats folders as part of the build rather than an admin afterthought, which is why the option only appears in build mode — organizing is treated as a building activity.

Combined with a custom navigation page inside each app, folders give a workspace structure that new users can follow without being walked through it.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Why can I not see the create-folder button?

Yes, and build the tables inside it afterwards.

### Can I move existing tables into a folder?
