js and css files are static and should be served by your web server of choice.

Actually, Python is able to do this very nicely and quickly these days. I've started using WhiteNoise (added as a django staticfiles provider) which does all the right things for you directly (uses sendfile, sets cache headers, does compression correct, all real work done at initialization time, if you best speed just add CDN, etc etc). It might be something to make MM3 setup a bit nicer and quicker (note, I still haven't migrated to MM3 so don't know much about it);

A point against it is an extra dependency ofc.

js and css files are static and should be served by your web server of choice. In a development environment you usually don't have a web server running, so django serves the files itself.

Your webserver can serve these static files much faster than django can, so django doesn't serve them in production by default. You can find instructions on how to do so online (Google is your friend) but since that's not incouraged there is no point in including these in the repos.

Hello List,

I did see this discussed in #180 <https://gitlab.com/mailman/postorius/issues/180>, but I didn't quite understand if this is an issue or not.

Why is it that I can run the development server just fine.

And as soon as I comment out

# SECURITY WARNING: don't run with debug turned on in production! # DEBUG = True

in mailman-suite/mailman-suite_project/settings.py and restart it 404s on me.

So the choice is insecure vs. ugly? Neither of those sounds very tempting.

I guess, I am missing something, or no?
