# Public Assets
|
|
|
|
Public assets are static files such as images, video, css, etc. that you want to make accessible to the outside world. Every new project includes, by default, a folder named `./public`.
|
|
|
|
Because an API may need to serve static assets, every new Strapi project includes by default, a folder named `/public`. Any file located in this directory is accessible if the request's path doesn't match any other defined route and if it matches a public file name.
|
|
|
|
#### Example
|
|
|
|
An image named `company-logo.png` in `./public/` is accessible through `/company-logo.png` URL.
|
|
|
|
::: tip
|
|
`index.html` files are served if the request corresponds to a folder name (`/pictures` url will try to serve `public/pictures/index.html` file).
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
::: warning
|
|
The dotfiles are not exposed. It means that every file where the names start with a `.`, such as `.htaccess` or `.gitignore`, are not served.
|

|
|
Refer to the [public assets configurations](./configurations.md#Application) for more information.
