The dev server is part of Webpack and is used to control hot module replacement of UI components. This means that, if you change a component file, you will not need to refresh the app to see the change. It will inject the new component immediately. ```bash npm run dev ``` ## Build to Folder Build all assets into `./build/` ```bash npm run build ```
