Ya, this is what I do.

I don’t have multiple directories for layouts since there is only one layout per different section but I have;

my_app_web/layouts/root.html.heex
my_app_web/layouts/public.html.heex
my_app_web/layouts/admin.html.heex

def live_view do
  quote do
    use Phoenix.LiveView,
      layout: {GelaWeb.Layouts, :public}

    unquote(html_helpers())
  end
end

def admin_live_view do
  quote do
    use Phoenix.LiveView,
      layout: {GelaWeb.Layouts, :admin}

    unquote(html_helpers())
  end
end

Then:

defmodule MyAppWeb.SomeAdminPage do
  use MyAppWeb, :admin_live_view
end

You can do the same with the controller helper.

I’m sure you can make this work with directories if you use a string instead of an atom.
