我应该使用资产文件夹还是公用文件夹？ laravel 5.3

Question

Using Laravel 5.3

I realized now the view files are under a folder called resources and there's an assets folder which has js folder in it. public folder still exists

I have read a few other posts saying it's up to you either I want to put my js or css under public or assets

I also know that when using gulp files are directed under public which is changeable.

I am wondering if I put my files under the assets then compile under public do I have to run the compile each time when I test my scripts? If not, what should I put as the src in my html?

Answer 1

You should put it in your public folder. If you use URL::asset('path/to/file') it will return [...]app/public/path/to/file and not the resources path as well.

The resources folder you mentioned is more for raw assets like SASS, LESS, etc.
