Hi @preeti5 

  It is always advisable is to use relative path instead of absolute path so that sling  will look for the resources first under /apps(helpful in case of overlay)and then under /libs .

      Hi @preeti5 ,

       

      Lets understand the resource resolution concept, by default the sling looks for any script under '/apps' and then '/libs' (of course if you have not modified "Apache Sling Resource Resolver Factory").

       

      Now when you specify resource path, that can be

       

      1. Absolute path - means you will specify either /apps* or /libs* path

      2. Relative path - you do not append anything (/apps or /libs) and let Sling do its job

       

      Now, why it is recommended to use relative path, just consider you have used /libs* and in future someone in your team creates an overlay (means modified script version under /apps*) then you have to modified all references where you have put script path as /libs.

       

      Hope it clarifies!
