# DCli Pack The dcli pack command allows you to pack resources (images, config files etc) into your cli app. Whilst flutter allows you to include assets in a dart executable no such feature exists for dart cli apps. The dcli pack command is designed to fill that void. A resource is just a file that you want to ship with your package. To pack a resource in you cli app create a 'resource' directory in the root of your project package. Place each file in the resource directory. Run `dcli pack`. You can also pack resources external to your project by creating a tool/dcli/pack.yaml. For further details on packing and unpacking resources see the [Asset/Resource](/dcli-api/assets.md) section. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
