## Assets

### `WPDefinedAsset`

The `WPDefinedAsset` type is a subtype of string, where the value represents a path to a JavaScript or CSS file relative to where `block.json` file is located. The path provided must be prefixed with `file:`. This approach is based on how npm handles [local paths](https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json#local-paths) for packages.

An alternative would be a script or style handle name referencing a registered asset using WordPress helpers.
An alternative would be a script or style handle name referencing an already registered asset using WordPress helpers.

**Example:**

In `block.json`:

```json
{
"editorScript": "file:./build/index.js",
"editorStyle": "my-editor-style-handle"
"editorScript": "file:./index.js",
"script": "my-script-handle",
"viewScript": "file:./view.js",
"editorStyle": "my-editor-style-handle",
"style": [ "file:./style.css", "my-style-handle" ]
}
```
