Doubts about static files

 Hello Team,

I have doubts about static files. I read articles on Django but it does not clearly states that atleast I got confused.

STATICFILES_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static")] this is my STATICFILES_DIRS settings which points out to static folder under my project. Also, I can add all the folder from individual app which hold static files here so that it search for static files.
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(BASE_DIR),'static_root') which points out to one level up folder than my project. This is how my project folder structures look like

static_root
MyProject
--static
----CSS
----JS
----imgs
--MyProject
--MyApp

When I run collectstatic files moves files from static files from static folder to static root.

Now, my question is when deploy it on apache which folder should I point to in my conf files. static_root or static.

Regards,
Sarfaraz Ahmed
