Which is considered Best Practice for declaring @section

Question

Which is considered best practice in the cshtml file:

  @section css  
  {  
      <link rel="stylesheet" href="~/css/DragDrop.css" />  
  }  

or

  @section css  
  {  
      <link rel="stylesheet" href="@Url.Content("~/css/DragDrop.css")" />  
  }  

Answer 1

Hi @Coreysan ,
You can choose the second one. @Url.Content resolves virtual paths to absolute paths.

 @section css  
   {  
       <link rel="stylesheet" href="@Url.Content("~/css/DragDrop.css")" />  
   }  

Best regards,
