# Assets
WXT has two directories for storing assets like CSS, images, or fonts.
- `<srcDir>/public`: Store files that will be copied into the output directory as-is
- `<srcDir>/assets`: Store files that will be processed by Vite during the build process
## `/public` Directory
Place static files like the extension icon or `_locales/` directory here. These files will be copied over to the output directory without being transformed by Vite.
```
<srcDir>
└─ public/
├─ icon-16.png
├─ icon-32.png
├─ icon-48.png
├─ icon-96.png
└─ icon-128.png
```
### Example
You can reference these files by using absolute paths in HTML files or `browser.runtime.getURL` in content scripts.
:::code-group
```html [popup.html]
<img src="/icon-128.png" />
```
```ts [content.ts]
defineContentScript({
main() {
const image = document.createElement('img');
image.src = browser.runtime.getURL('/icon-128.png');
document.body.append(image);
},
});
```
:::
## `/assets` Directory
Files in the assets directory will be processed by Vite. They are imported in your source code, and will be transformed or renamed in the output directory.
```
<srcDir>
└─ assets/
├─ style.css
└─ illustration.svg
```
### Example
:::code-group
```html [popup.html]
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="~/assets/style.css" />
<!-- ... -->
</head>
<body>
<img src="~/illustration.svg" />
<!-- ... -->
</body>
</html>
```
```ts [content.ts]
import '~/assets/style.css';
import illustration from '~/assets/style.svg';
defineContentScript({
main() {
const image = document.createElement('img');
image.src = illustration;
document.body.append(image);
},
});
```
