> Remove unused res folder from app template
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-14098
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-14098
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: cordova-app-hello-world
> Affects Versions: 3.11.0
> Reporter: Raphael
> Priority: Major
>
> The res folder weighs around 10MiB and contains resources for a whole lot of platforms, most of which are actually deprecated. Furthermore, as I understand the included `README.md` (which I'm not sure I do), the contents of this folder seem to not even being used for anything.
> So my proposal is to remove this directory from the template. That would decrease the installation size of `cordova` by about two thirds and remove unnecessary clutter from any newly created apps.
> If I did get anything wrong and this is actually used, we should probably clarify the README, remove all content related to deprecated platforms (like suggested in CB-13726) and run them through some compressors (pngquant and zopflipng).
