I'm really proud of how organized my code is getting. I've been reading a lot about software architecture and trying to implement it to make really neat and maintainable code

You can't tell me it isn't beautiful 🤩 For very process oriented tasks i build MVC format, but with a twist. It's NESTED MVC. Controllers call nested sub controllers Those controllers can eventually call a model or view function, but the rule is those functions need to be terminal (they don't call other functions) a sub controller might coordinate many model tasks or many view tasks, but if you need both, you need two sub controllers

Now, if you're going to reuse model and view functions, those need to go at the base level, in a "shared utilities" section. That gets around the scope limitations of nesting. So you're getting the MOST neat code posible, very human readable, but you don't need to rewrite logic

Also, the concept of DRY is important too. Building abstract functions applicable to many tasks. For example, the handleFilterOperation function is called by 8 different user interface interactions, just using different input parameters. No code duplication
