What do static resources in Mendix primarily include?

Static resources in Mendix primarily include resources that do not change at runtime and are sent to the client as is. These resources are essential for the presentation layer of an application, allowing developers to define how the application looks and feels.

Stylesheets, which are typically written in CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), play a significant role in making applications visually appealing. They dictate the layout, colors, fonts, and overall appearance of elements on the page. When a Mendix application is accessed, these stylesheets are transmitted to the client, enabling the browser to apply the specified styles to the HTML content.

While HTML files and JavaScript files are indeed part of web applications, they are not classified under static resources in the same context. HTML files provide the structure, and JavaScript files typically include dynamic logic for interactivity. Database schema files, on the other hand, are server-side components that define the structure of stored data but are not transmitted to the client as static resources. Therefore, stylesheets represent the primary static resources that enhance the user interface in Mendix applications.
