# Static Resources (Clojure Only)
Static resources can be served using `reitit.ring/create-resource-handler`. It takes optionally an options map and returns a ring handler to serve files from Classpath.
Static resources can be served by using the following two functions:
There are two options to serve the files.
* `reitit.ring/create-resource-handler`, which returns a Ring handler that serves files from classpath, and
* `reitit.ring/create-file-handler`, which returns a Ring handler that servers files from file system
There are two ways to mount the handlers.
The examples below use `reitit.ring/create-resource-handler`, but `reitit.ring/create-file-handler` works the same way.

## External routes
A better way to serve files from conflicting paths, e.g. `"/*"`, is to serve them from the default-handler. One can compose multiple default locations using `ring-handler`. This way, they are only served if none of the actual routes have matched.
