Configuration files
This section outlines the configuration files available in your project. These files are crucial for managing and customizing the build system, ensuring that the development environment is tailored to meet specific requirements.
Configuration files overview
| File name | Description |
|---|---|
build/config.js |
This file serves as the main input file where paths, file names, and other configurations are specified. It defines essential paths such as HTML, SCSS, JS source, and output directories, along with specific configurations for assets like icons and vendor files. If you change the fileNames for JS and CSS or any source folder names (like scss: 'src/scss', src_js: 'src/js') in this configuration, ensure to update the references in the source files accordingly: src/scss/new-file-name.scss and src/js/new-file-name.js. Additionally, any folder name changes must be reflected in the project structure and related paths. This will ensure the build system functions correctly. |
