The
root web folder is the root of the tree of web elements. It corresponds both
to the folder named htdocs on disk and to the document root of the
generated web application ( site ). The name of this folder has no special
meaning and is ignored in the generation process. The name of the document
root is in fact a property of the current deployment site.
Every file or folder under htdocs corresponds to a
web element under the root web folder. However, the root web folder, like
web folders, may also contain non file-based elements such as zones and
polymorphic zones.
