On the Laravel News site there's a new post sharing some of the changes to the "resources" directory that are coming in Laravel v5.7.

Taylor Otwell announced that in Laravel 5.7 the resources directory will be flattened instead of having an assets folder.

The post includes "before" and "after" examples of the directory structure change and shares some Laravel Mix configuration changes that can be used to move the assets pre-release of v5.7.
