 For example, to find the Button component (that belongs to the `main` package), look inside the `packages/main/dist` folder.

-The `assetsPath` setting allows to override the path where asset files (most commonly `.json` ) are located. UI5 Web Components `tools` use `rollup`

 necessary to be able to pass the right directory at runtime, most commonly inside the configuration script directly:
