When you create a local site, you can place any existing assets (images or other pieces of content) in a folder inside the local site's root folder. Then when you're ready to add content to your pages, the assets will be ready to use.
The sample files included with contain assets for the site you'll build with these Getting Started tutorials. The first step in creating the site is to copy the sample files from the application folder to an appropriate folder on your hard disk.
Note: The recommended folder structure and location for your local site was chosen to make it easy to follow the tutorials. However, when the sample files are in the recommended location, you won't be able to use site root-relative links in the sample site. Therefore, these tutorials use only document-relative links. For information about root-relative and document-relative links, see Using Help.

Note: On the Macintosh, there's a folder called Sites already in your user folder. Don't use that Sites folder as your local folder; the Sites folder is where you place your pages to make them publicly accessible when you're using the Macintosh as a web server.
If you installed to its default location, the path to the folder is as follows:
After copying the GettingStarted folder, define the folder as a local folder.
