There really is no standard for organization, but the usage of an include/includes/inc directory which contains files with template hooks and template functions is commonplace. Searching for hooks and callbacks really is the way to go. @Mark Kaplun made a good point about dynamic hooks, which were not used in this case, but are definitely something to be mindful of. | |

Sure! I don't think it's over-coded; it's flexible! These functions can be overridden in a child theme (the parent theme should never be modified directly). Also, these functions can be unhooked via remove_action() and re-added via child themes or plugins. Storefront has recently be rewritten, and although I have not used it in production, the source looks great to me.
