I have created a folder for CSS files inside my assets directory. I have also added stylePreprocessorOptions in my angular.json. When I am trying to import the css file I keep getting the error that it is not being found.

If I import directly like @import './assets/css/icons.css'; then angular no complaining

I have tried different paths like this but nothing worked "src/assets/styles", "/assets/styles",

styles.css:

@import 'icons.css';

CodePudding user response：

Why don't you just import the css inside the angular.json it will be the same as doing it inside styles.css

Also note to my knowledge you cannot import multiple styles like a glob pattern, instead create a single file called index.css and then import all the files using that single file!
