Structure

Considerations about varying project structures have been taken into account as much as possible. Examples can only provide so much detail and as such the below is what is considered a best-case structure for AEM Vite.

ClientLibs

The best-case structure recommended for ClientLibs when using AEM Vite is as below.

/apps/<project>/clientlibs/clientlib-site
/apps/<project>/clientlibs/clientlib-site/resources
/apps/<project>/clientlibs/clientlib-site/css.txt
/apps/<project>/clientlibs/clientlib-site/js.txt

Working with the AEM Archetype

When creating a new project using the AEM Archetype it will provide a clientlib-site folder already. You should only need to update ui.frontend to align with AEM Vite and not need to make any changes in ui.apps.

Template policy(s)

Your template policy(s) will also need to be updated to support this structure. The below is an example of how to achieve this.

xml
<page jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
  <policy
    jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
    sling:resourceType="wcm/core/components/policy/policy"
    clientlibs="[]"
    clientlibsJsHead="[clientlib-site]"/>
</page>
