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

Enable build mode in Jestor — the create-folder button is hidden while it is off.
Open the folders area and create a folder for the process.
Create it empty if the tables do not exist yet, then build inside it.
Move existing tables and apps into the folder as the process grows.
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.
