    <title>Recommended Project Structure for Zend Framework MVC Applications</title>

    <sect1 id="project-structure.overview">
        <title>Overview</title>

        <para>
            Many developers seek guidance on the best project structure for a Zend Framework project
            in a relatively flexible environment. A "flexible" environment is one in which the
            developer can manipulate their file systems and web server configurations as needed to
            achieve the most ideal project structure to run and secure their application. The
            default project structure will assume that the developer has such flexibility at their
            disposal.
        </para>

        <para>
            The following directory structure is designed to be maximally extensible for complex
            projects, while providing a simple subset of folder and files for project with simpler
            requirements. This structure also works without alteration for both modular and
            non-modular ZF applications. The <filename>.htaccess</filename> files require URL
            rewrite functionality in the web server as described in the <link
                linkend="project-structure.rewrite">Rewrite Configuration Guide</link>, also
            included in this appendix.
        </para>

        <para>
            It is not the intention that this project structure will support all possible ZF project
            requirements. The default project profile used by <classname>Zend_Tool</classname>
            reflect this project structure, but applications with requirements not supported by this
            structure should use a custom project profile.

                            controller/model/view directories. Having these three directories inside
                            the application directory provides the best layout for starting a simple
                            project as well as starting a modular project that has global

                            and non-MVC-based layouts, the location of this directory reflects that
                            layouts are not on a 1-to-1 relationship with controllers and are
                            independent of templates within <filename>views/</filename>.

                            under the modules directory would resemble the structure under the

                    the application depends, and should be on the PHP
                    <varname>include_path</varname>.  Developers should place their application's
                    library code under this directory in a unique namespace, following the
                    guidelines established in the PHP manual's <ulink

                    <classname>Zend_Application</classname>, which in turn invokes the
