It's been coined the LIFT Principle - aka "Folders-by-Feature" vs. "Folders-by-type". https://github.com/johnpapa/angular-styleguide/blob/master/a1/README.md#application-structure-lift-principle https://github.com/johnpapa/angular-styleguide/blob/master/a...

Hell, EmberJS embodies the Folders-by-type into the framework.
