Next.js · Junior · Question 58 of 75

Can the `app/` folder live inside `src/`?

✓Correct answer: Yes - src/app is supported; config files like next.config.ts and public/ stay at the project root
2No - app/ must always be at the root
3Yes, but only with the Pages Router

Explanation

The src folder separates application code from config files. If app/ exists at the root too, the root one wins and src/app is ignored.
