It may be confusing for new users that there are warnings in the includDojo.html file. There are warning because the paths to CSS, etc in this file are not correct because the file is processed at runtime as if it were in the root (WebContent).

From Ji Yong on RTC work item 61783:
The warning happens because the relative path of url is different in development and deploy mode. 
For example,
<script src="dojo/dojo.js"></script>
has warning, because the url should be ../dojo/dojo.js in development mode.
But after deployed, the content of  this includeDojo.html file will be pasted to the generation page html, which the correct url should be
dojo/dojo.js
So if we change the url to eliminate the warning, the deployed url will be wrong!!

Proposed changed:
Why can't the file be moved to "WebContent" (from WebContent\config) so the paths in the file resolve properly in the IDE? This would avoid making any changes to the contents of the file. The file is only referenced by DojoBase.egl, so the code changes are small.

Ji Yong's response to this proposal:
The proposal works well.
The changes we have to make:
1. com.ibm.egl.rui.dojo.widgets_1.0.0/EGLSource/dojo/widgets/DojoBase.egl, update the link to includeDojo.html
ExternalType DojoBase extends Widget type JavaScriptObject {
    relativePath = "dojo/widgets",
    javaScriptName = "DojoBase",    
    includeFile = "includeDojo.html"            // The only change
}
2. In all 3 runtimes, move includeDojo.html from WebContent/config to WebContent.
