		"description": "Module assets that are placed in the module's Assets folder are packaged into the application bundle in the modules/<module_id> folder. Modules requiring access to those resources then must be coded to reference their NSBundle resources in that folder rather than the application's root bundle. The other option is to require the developer to manually copy the resources needed by the module into the Resources folder in the application project.\r\n\r\nFor modules where we can modify the source code, the module developer must update all references to loading resources to use the correct folder location. For modules where we do not have access to the source code (ie. only a library is provided) it is not possible to modify the source code and the module developer must ensure that resources are placed into the application's resource bundle. This can cause problems and issues when this is not done properly.\r\n\r\nThere should be a mechanism that allows the module developer to specify resources that should be packaged into the application bundle root folder. That would allow modules to be more turn-key and eliminate issues that result when resources are not in the proper location. One possibility is to allow the developer to place these assets into the \"Resources\" folder (rather than the \"Assets\" folder) in the module folder. During the build process for the application, resources located in the \"Resources\" folder of a module are placed into the root of the application bundle rather than the modules/<module_id> folder.",
