Deep folder structures in React applications lead to messy import statements with multiple ../../../ sequences that are hard to read and maintain. As the creator of CoreUI with over 12 years of React experience since 2014, I’ve configured absolute imports for numerous large-scale applications. React supports absolute imports through a simple jsconfig.json or tsconfig.json configuration that maps import paths to specific directories. This approach transforms imports from ../../../components/Button to components/Button, making code much cleaner and easier to refactor.

Importing and exporting modules in Angular enables modular application architecture by allowing you to organize features into separate modules and share functionality across the application. As the creator of CoreUI, a widely used open-source UI library, I’ve structured countless Angular applications using proper module imports and exports for scalable enterprise solutions. From my expertise, the most effective approach is using imports array for dependencies and exports array for sharing components with other modules. This method provides clear module boundaries and efficient dependency management.
