• WebAssembly SDK - what is the replacement for <WasmExtraFilesToDeploy>? runtime#118146
• WasmBootConfigFileName doesn't work with WasmAppBuilder without additional configuration runtime#117900

Files outside of wwwroot can be linked into wwwroot and thus picked up by SWA

<Content Include="generate\main.js" Link="wwwroot\main.js" CopyToOutputDirectory="PreserveNewest" />

We need to figure out which SWA target is ideal for hooking typescript (or any other custom) build onto.

Alternative approach, use Microsoft.VisualStudio.JavaScript.Sdk, eg https://github.com/microsoft/fluentui-blazor/blob/dev/src/Core.Assets/Microsoft.FluentUI.AspNetCore.Components.Assets.esproj. I'm not sure what's the preferred path.

@maraf ... Is this is a general ASP.NET Core scenario? ... i.e. for ...

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/static-files?view=aspnetcore-9.0

... or is it only for Blazor ... i.e. for ...

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/fundamentals/static-files?view=aspnetcore-9.0

[maraf]

Good question. I think both? Maybe the approach is in fact common and nothing blazor specific is needed.

I added the metadata for the main doc set article, which maps to Wade.
