Where does Nest build go?

Nest's documentation says that nest build compiles stuff "into an output folder".

It fails however to mention what output folder that is.

Is it dist/? Not sure, running the command also does not give any hints.

Solution

Commonly, nest build will go to the dist directory, as is a pretty common practice with most typescript applications. As a hint, you can look at the start:prod script in the package.json and see that it points at node dist/main for the start point. This is configurable, though, by changing the outDir of your tsconfig.json. If you do end up changing it, make sure to update the start:prod script if you plan on using that when you deploy for production
