  • 0

I’m unclear about where javascript files and stylesheets should be added to a Rails project. Perhaps they should be added to public/javascripts and public/stylesheets respectively. Then they’re copied to app/assets? Or perhaps it’s the other way around.

I’ve experimented with <%= stylesheet_link_tag :all %> and :default and just explicitly naming my stylesheets but I’m still confused.

Where should javascript files and stylesheets be added to a Rails project?

    It is the other way around. You add stylesheets and javascripts to their respectable folders in assets.

    You then use:

    = stylesheet_link_tag     "application"
= javascript_include_tag  "application"

    Check the guide for details http://guides.rubyonrails.org/asset_pipeline.html
