-## Inprogress
+## [1.0.0] - 2025-03-11
 
-- Updated `ProjecUri` typo to `ProjectUri` in all places. This should work properly for all new module invokes.
+### Added
+
+- New optional project setting `copyResourcesToModuleRoot`. Setting to true places resource files in the root directory of module. Default is `false` to provide backward compatibility. Thanks to @[BrooksV](https://github.com/BrooksV)
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **BREAKING CHANGE**: Typo corrected: ProjecUri to ProjectUri. Existing projects require manual update.

+- All functions in the `private` folder are accessible internally within the module but are not exposed outside the module.
+- Contents of the `src/resources` folder will be handled based on setting `copyResourcesToModuleRoot`
+
+#### Resources Folder
+
+The `resources` folder within the `src` directory is intended for including any additional resources required by your module. This can include files such as:
+
+- **Configuration files**: Store any JSON, XML, or other configuration files needed by your module.
+- **Script files**: Place any scripts that are used by your functions or modules, but are not directly part of the public or private functions.
+- **Documentation files**: Include any supplementary documentation that supports the usage or development of the module.
+- **Data files**: Store any data files that are used by your module, such as CSV or JSON files.
+- **Subfolder**: Include any additional folders and their content to be included with the module, such as dependant Modules, APIs, DLLs, etc... organized by a subfolder.
+
+
+By default, resource files from `src/resources` go into `dist/resources`. To place them directly in dist (avoiding the resources subfolder), set `copyResourcesToModuleRoot` to `true`. This provides greater control in certain deployment scenarios where resources files are preferred in module root directory.
+
+Leave `src\resources` empty if there is no need to include any additional content in the `dist` folder.
+
+An example of the module build where resources were included and `copyResourcesToModuleRoot` is set to true.
