Alternatively, we can provide a parameter named static_folder to the application object while defining the application in app.py, as follows:

app = Flask(__name__, static_folder='/path/to/static/folder') 

In the preceding line of code, static refers to the value of static_url_path on the application object. This can be modified as follows:

app = Flask( 
    __name__, static_url_path='/differentstatic', 
    static_folder='/path/to/static/folder' 
) 

Now, to render the static file, we will use the following code:

<img src='/differentstatic/logo.png'> 

It is always a good practice to use url_for to create URLs for static files rather than explicitly defining them, as follows:

<img src="{{ url_for('static', filename='logo.png') }}">
