I am new to JavaScript and its related framework.
What is an asset? Is it a group of JS/HTML/img files? Is it a folder? Or a library? Or a generic term used to describe all UI related files?
What is a bundle?

"Bundle" could refer to many different things, do you mean module bundling? – APAD1 Commented Mar 10, 2017 at 20:41

Reset to default 23An asset is typically a static file such as JS files, image files, CSS files. A bundle is when those files are then compressed together into a single file.
For example, if you create a "bundle" you can say: Take layout.js, product.js, print.js and output to my_bundle_name.js. Usually making a single concatenated minified file called bundle.
