5. Build the web target

installed luastra CLI · about 10 minutes
luastra build web

Creates the production-style static artifact in dist/web by default.

When to use it

Use this after the interactive preview works and you need a deployable web artifact.

  • The command should emit JSON with result=PASS and the output directory.
  • The installed CLI builds web and host-neutral bundle targets; application-facing desktop/mobile packaging is not yet a CLI command.
  • Serve dist/web through an HTTP server or hosting provider. Opening index.html through file:// is unsupported.

Focused example

luastra build web
# Output: ./dist/web
