# Static Files - `StaticFiles`

You can use the `StaticFiles` class to serve static files, like JavaScript, CSS, images, etc.

Read more about it in the [FastAPI docs for Static Files](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/tutorial/static-files/).

You can import it directly from `fastapi.staticfiles`:

```python
from fastapi.staticfiles import StaticFiles
```

    inputs.property("currentVersion", baseVersion)
    def apiSourceFolders = configurations.currentSources.incoming.artifactView { lenient(true) }.files
    inputs.files("apiSourceFolders", apiSourceFolders)
    inputs.files(currentClasspath)
    inputs.files(extractGradleApiInfo)

    newClasspath.from(currentClasspath)
    oldClasspath.from(configurations.baselineClasspath)

    newArchives.from(currentDistroJars)

By default, those files are served from a <abbr title="Content Delivery Network: A service, normally composed of several servers, that provides static files, like JavaScript and CSS. It's commonly used to serve those files from the server closer to the client, improving performance.">CDN</abbr>.

But it's possible to customize it, you can set a specific CDN, or serve the files yourself.
