# Project Conventions

The project facilities require that file extensions are `ijs` for scripts, and `ijp` for project files.

There are no requirements as to project directories. However, it makes for easier searching if you group the project subdirectories in a small number of directories. For example, you could use the directory user\projects, and you might then create subdirectories such as user\projects\mywork, user\projects\utils etc. Also, you may wish to name project files with the same name as the directory, since this simplifies the display in the Look In list box.

For applications where there are several developers, it is probably better to avoid the default J directories altogether, and create new directories for each application. This makes it easier to share code between the developers.

Since directories are searched for project files when you use the Project Manager, you should avoid using directories where there are a large number of subdirectories not being used for projects. For example, you would typically not include any projects under the J system subdirectory.
