Important: These docs are for the outdated Jets 5 versions and below. For the latest Jets docs: docs.rubyonjets.com

The jets new command generates a new project with the following directory structure:

.
├── app
│   ├── controllers
│   ├── helpers
│   ├── javascript
│   ├── jobs
│   ├── models
│   └── views
├── bin
├── config
├── db
├── public
└── spec

The table below states the purpose of each directory:
