Where is the best place to store static files (images, JS, CSS, etc.) used on the site?

When using Kuroco as a content management system for your site, there are two locations for storing static files:

  • Storing them in the source files (e.g. the static directory in Nuxt.js)
  • Storing them in KurocoFiles

We will explain the recommended usage for each option.

  • For files (images, CSS, JS, etc.) used in the site design
  • For files that will be frequently updated
  • For files with large file sizes (e.g. images over 30MB)

Pros of using KurocoFiles​

By storing large files in KurocoFiles, the overall file size of the source files can be reduced. When the source file size is smaller, the Build & Deploy time using GitHub Actions is shortened.

Cons of using KurocoFiles​

One disadvantage is that KurocoFiles does not have version control. Therefore, if you upload CSS or JS files to KurocoFiles, those files cannot be version-controlled.
