• Run puli server --add myserver public_html to make the server link to the public_html folder.
• Run puli publish /myapp/public myserver to register the path.
• Run `puli publish --install' to create symlinks of the /res/public elements into the public_html path
• Open url-generation.php to see the absolute path output.

Step 3 - Usage with Twig

####git checkout step-3

• Run composer update to install the required dependencies.
• Modify the lines 9 and 60 of the views/index.html.twig as follow:

...
60:    <img src="{{ resource_url('../public/images/200x200.gif') }}" alt="Post thumbnail" class="thumbnail" />
