When you specify a path for your css and JS files, the root of the files need to be in 'project-name\public\' and not 'project-name\'

If you want for example to include with blade 'mytheme.css' which is inside 'mypersonalcss' folder ('mypersonnalcss\mytheme.css') fist add it to the project in 'project-name\public\mypersonnalcss\mytheme.css'

Then add it in your blade file :
