**Note:** There is no difference how you name or structure your views. You could place all your templates in a top-level `views` directory without having a nested folder structure, if that makes things easier for you. Just don't forget to update `extends ../layout` and corresponding `res.render()` method in controllers. For smaller apps, I find having a flat folder structure to be easier to work with.

**Note 2:** Although your main template - **layout.jade** only knows about `/css/styles.css` file, you should be editing **styles.less** stylesheet. Express will automatically generate **styles.css** whenever there are changes in LESS file. This is done via [less-middleware](https://github.com/emberfeather/less.js-middleware) node.js library.
