Laravel 5: adding custom styles/scripts

This is kind of a stupid question, and I've looked around for similar answers and found some, however they are a bit more specific than what I am asking.

Say I want to include a custom styles.css or scripts.js file, would I just create a css/js folder in resources/views folder, and then call to them in my blade.php files like I would normally do in an HTML file when not using Laravel?

Example: <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="css/styles.css">

Or is there a different approach to this in Laravel?

put your style.css file in inside css folder named: /css AND your js file inside js folder named: /jsput below code in your html file.

Your css files

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ URL::asset('css/yourstylesheet.css') }}" />

And js files

<script type="text/javascript" src="{{ URL::asset('js/jquery.min.js') }}"></script>

Put your css files into the public folder like public/css/styles.css

Use the asset() function to add css, javascript or images into your blade template.

For Style Sheets

<link href="{{ asset('css/styles.css') }}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" >

or

<link href="{{ URL::asset('css/styles.css') }}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" >

For Javascript

<script type="text/javascript" src="{{ asset('js/scripts.js') }}"></script>

or

 <script type="text/javascript" src="{{ URL::asset('js/scripts.js') }}"></script>

You may also be interested to have a look at Laravel's Elixir to process your styles and javascript.
