Adobe Exam AD0-E720 Topic 5 Question 36 Discussion

To alias URLs and third party libraries inside a requirejs-config.js file, the developer should use the paths configuration option. This option allows the developer to map module names to URLs or paths relative to the baseUrl. For example:

var config = { paths: { 'jquery': 'https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min', 'custom': 'Vendor_Module/js/custom' } };

This will map the module name 'jquery' to the URL of the jQuery library and the module name 'custom' to the path of the custom module. The developer can then use these module names in other modules or files without specifying the full URL or path.

Option A is not correct because it uses the shim configuration option, which is used to define dependencies and exports for non-AMD modules, not to alias URLs or paths. Option C is not correct because it uses the map configuration option, which is used to map module names to other module names for specific contexts, not to alias URLs or paths.
