Project structure & config

A step of the Cloud application tree on Gradus, in the Build & ship area: Config, lint, releases, IaC.

Establish a conventional folder structure and a config module that validates environment variables at startup, so new code has an obvious home and a bad deploy fails fast.

Usually comes after: Continuous integration.

Leads to: Linting & formatting, Infrastructure as code.
