Optional configuration for the project can be done in the following files below.

Open env.config.js and you will see the default configuration for the project.

| Config | Description | | ----------- | ----------- | | .browerslistrc | Open .browserslist to configure Browser support for TypeScript + SCSS compiliation. Read more here about Browerslist. Defaults are set for last 2 versions, > 1% and IE 11. | | outputConfig.destPath | The folder in which you want your app to compile to. By default this is dist. | | entryConfig | Webpack Entry points, by default this will look for the TypeScript + SCSS entry point files. More info on Entry points here | | copyPluginPatterns.patterns | Configure folders you want copied over when compiling your app. Useful to copy over entire folder structures of images or fonts. | | devServer | Configure the Webpack development server. Enable https, specify a particular port, or host. More information on these options here | scssConfig.destFileName | Specify the output for your css. E.g css/app.css | terserPluginConfig | Full Terser config can be found here.

Images, Fonts and output

Here's an example of the default generated output to our dist folder.

- index.html
-- js
-- css
-- fonts
---- some-font-file.woff
-- images
---- path-to-example-image.jpg

• By default, fonts and images are copied to the dist folder.
• To include a reference to an image or font, it should be relative to where your css would output.

For example:

stylesheets/some-folder/some-file-somewhere.scss

.example {
    background-image: url("../images/path-to-image-example.jpg");
}

@font-face {
    font-family: "Example-font";
    src: url("../fonts/some-font-file.woff");
}

Would output to the folder css/app.css

- index.html
-- js
-- css
---- app.css
-- fonts
---- some-font-file.woff
-- images
---- path-to-example-image.jpg
