# server-root/

Any server root files can be added to the `server-root` directory, including schema files, email template files, custom password dictionaries, and other files that must be present on the final server root. Add these files to the `server-root/pre-setup` or `server-root/post-setup` directory, depending on when they need to be copied to the server root. Most server root files are added to the server-root/pre-setup directory.
