- Yes, the GettingStarted page shows an example of storing Flourish outside of the website document root.
- Yes, and you can use the AdvancedDownload page to only download what you need.
On a side-note, the AdvancedDownload page right now includes some classes which are not strictly necessary, but it instead selects all classes required if you use all functionality in all of the checked classes and all of their dependencies. I'll be doing some work on improving that and the inter-dependencies of Flourish in the coming weeks.
