I've seen a couple of projects built in that style. Whether it makes sense is a mix pragmatism and personal preference. In my own project I've broken out generic apps into deps and kept apps that are only useful in the context of the project in the apps folder.

Adding the following to your rebar.config should do the job:

{sub_dirs, ["apps/app1", "apps/apps2"]}.
