What files go to grails-app / assets vs web application

Question

I'm just starting out with Grails and trying to figure out when to put files in grails-app/assets/{stylesheets|images|javascript}and put things in web-app/{css|images|js}.

Answer 1

In short, if you want your front-end resources to be managed using the Asset Pipeline plugin , you must put them in grails-app/assets. If you do not, you must place them under web-app.
