Configurable public/ path(s)

[EliasVal]

Goals

1. More configuration for the developer
2. Possibly shareable public/ dirs and assets

Non-Goals

No response

Background

I'm currently developing in a monorepo, where multiple sub-projects share the same assets (aka files under public/), while some files stay exclusive to their respective projects.

The only current workaround I'm aware of is a symlink from the shared public/ directory into each individual public/folder

Proposal

In my opinion, the developer should be able to choose multiple directories to serve as public/, with choices of where to mount each.
an example would be

module.exports = {
  staticFiles: [
    {
      dir: 'C:/....',
      path: '/shared'
    },
    {
      dir: 'public',
      path: '/'
    }
  ]
}
