So I got started, this library is lovely, but today I got a problem, how do I can move camera in 3d? In 2d I found a tutorial with views but in 3d? I serched, but I didnt found what I was looking for.

 And one more question, is better to organise scripts, is better to organise in multiple files with headers and things?? And make a class and derive it(I dont found why but I see lot of people do this.)

Since SFML is a 2D library by nature, I presume you are using OpenGL directly to work with 3D.

To move a "camera" in 3D space, you can transform all primitives inversely, which moves them to match the camera rather than moving the camera to match the movement.

You could see if these articles help:
