Just small comment, Could you do a walk through of your code, find the common things and include design pattern when restructure or refactor your code. since companies doesn't give you second thought on your codes!

Projects can take help of the following to group functionality:

Classe.
Namespace
Libraries
Folders

You have to give nice and meaningful names. Group similar code in same places. Keep code modular. Give proper comments. Avoid keeping dead code.

Solution 2

Break out things into libraries where it makes sense, not just because you can. Follow the kiss (keep it simple stupid) design methodology where possible and it will save you headaches in the long run.

Solution 1

That sounds good.

Organize your libraries by function and give them meaningful names.
