How to bundle a folder which is outside in project folder

We are having multiple .NET MVC projects linked each other but some script and css files are same for all. Folder structure is as below

- Root folder
    - Assets
        - Js
        - CSS
    - Project 1
    - Project 2
    - Project 3

All common js and are inside Assets/js and Assers/Css folder which is lying outside project folders. Can we bundle Assets folder into Project 1,2 and 3?

Thank you for any hint/guidance in advance.

Yes you can. You just need to add some codes in tjhe App_Start\BundleConfig.cs file of each project.

Like this, you add in the method RegisterBundles:

public static void RegisterBundles(BundleCollection bundles)
{
 bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("Root/Assets/js").Include(
             "Root/Assets/Js/*.js")); //You put your path where there is the Root

 bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("Root/Assets/css").Include(
             "Root/Assets/CSS/*.css")); //You put your path where there is the Root



     // Code removed for clarity.
}

And then you you can put these lines inside each Layout.cshtml

@Styles.Render("Root/Assets/css")
@Scripts.Render("Root/Assets/js")

To call your Js library and CSS files.

I hope it will help

Yes you can, create a web setup project...

New Project > Other Project Types > Setup and Deployment > Visual Studio Installer > Web Setup Project

Then right mouse click on the setup project and select

View > File System

From there you can add custom folders / files that will be included in the setup file that is deployable.
