# 1. File Structure

babl follows a pretty fixed file structure in which you will have to adapt to. If you want to use previous babl themes (created by myself) for guidance you may do so.

The most frequent folder you will be working in will be the `app/resources/views/themename` folder. This will basically be your home while you work on your theme.

Let's go through what folders & files should be in your `themename` folder (as of v1.7.0).

* bans
* board
* category
* includes
* layouts
* replies
* thread
* users
* index.blade.php
* tos.blade.php

This is what the file structure *should* be. Again, previous babl themes will be your best friends for this process, use them as guides.
