Petr Plavjanik recently raised a question about how we pack and serve static content - CSS, JS, images.

Basically following options are available: - pack them with the app code (depends on technology/framework used) - Use CDN (Content Delivery Network) - either public or private - Use browser caches - All methods have pros and cons. Jakub's suggestion for configurability looks good. May be a bit heavier to implement (glad to be wrong here). CDN then comes as an option if available and acceptable for the customer. Different packaging variants as WebJars are technology dependent and up to each team/product. The browser cache looks like the cheapest to implement and has other advantages such as not consuming any server/paid resources and processing time.
