asset-packagist: This is the traditional Yii2 way, here we will add the following to our composer.json.
- Assets #1 - definitions
It is often preferable to manage Yii Assets programmatically. For example, when you use the widget in a page, it will automatically include the required css and javascript files, instead of asking you to manually find these files and include them.

In this tutorial, we will describe the powerful Yii Assets management capability provided in Yii Framework .
