I am new to Magento 2. We are currently in the process of migrating from Magento 1 and I have been tasked with updating our custom pages to work in Magento 2. I have a page (using the page editor in the admin) that uses it's own styles, jquery and javascript. I have added the files to our template folders and am pulling them in using the xml:
<head>
<css src="css/active.min.css" />
<css src="css/apps.min.css" />
<script src="js/active.min.js" />
<script src="js/apps.min.js" />
</head>
The files are showing properly in google inspector and are pulling the code when I check them, the css works however none of the js does.
Our developers suggested building a custom module but no matter how much documentation I read I am just not understanding how the Magento 2 modules work. Is there a way to get this to work with template files? I did this the same way with a category and static block and it worked just fine.
Thanks, Niki
