title: fileExists

The `os.FileExists` function attempts to resolve the path relative to the root of your project directory. If a matching file or directory is not found, it will attempt to resolve the path relative to the [`contentDir`](/getting-started/configuration#contentdir). A leading path separator (`/`) is optional.
With this directory structure:
```text
content/
├── about.md
├── contact.md
└── news/
├── article-1.md
└── article-2.md
```
The function returns these values:
```go-html-template
{{ os.FileExists "content" }} → true
{{ os.FileExists "content/news" }} → true
{{ os.FileExists "content/news/article-1" }} → false
{{ os.FileExists "content/news/article-1.md" }} → true
{{ os.FileExists "news" }} → true
{{ os.FileExists "news/article-1" }} → false
{{ os.FileExists "news/article-1.md" }} → true
```
