- OJFord 4y ago'Build' is commonly used both ways, and not just in software.
- Karellen 4y agoBut the article is very clear about what it means by "build". The three places that it uses the term wrt software, in context, are: > would you rather have TypeScript build your code 20% faster? > did this make my build faster? > You might be surprised what's making it into your build! which are clearly talking about the build process and inputs, not its output.
- afavour 4y agoI think my confusion was the use of MB. If the headline had been "I shaved 200ms from my build" it would be very clear it was about the build process. But when I see MB I immediately think about output.
- tshaddox 4y agoThat interpretation doesn’t even make sense in TypeScript though, does it? You don’t build a “TypeScript app bundle” and send it off to be installed on your TypeScript executor. The only interpretations I can think of for “TypeScript build” would be 1) the typechecking process, which just outputs a list of type errors and warnings or 2) the transpilation process which strips out all the TypeScript syntax from your code leaving you with valid JavaScript.
