The step that turns source code into optimized output ready to run or deploy.
A build catches TypeScript errors, bundles code, optimizes assets, and prepares server/client output. “It works in dev” is not enough; production build is the real gate for many web apps because it exercises stricter paths.
Plainly
Think of Build as the checklist that keeps the app open for real people. The step that turns source code into optimized output ready to run or deploy.
In practice
Use it when a change has to survive deploys, users, incidents, analytics, or billing reality. In practice, define the owner, input, output, and failure mode before you rely on it.
