If I have a file css/style.css inside the public folder. Can I include this file in a .blade.php file using:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css">

instead of

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{asset('css/style.css')}}">

Or what's the difference between the two cases?

if the style files are placed in the public directory, you can write the path to them without asset helper and everything will work. However, if the resources you need are outside the public directory, this helper is indispensable. I think the file storage documentation will suit you
