# Builds

# API

The api side of Redwood is transpiled by Babel into the ./api/dist folder.

# steps on Netlify

To emulate Netlify's build steps locally:

yarn rw build api
cd api
yarn zip-it-and-ship-it dist/functions/ zipballs/

Each lambda function in ./api/dist/functions is parsed by zip-it-and-ship-it resulting in a zip file per lambda function that contains all the dependencies required for that lambda function.

Note: The @netlify/zip-it-and-ship-it package needs to be installed as a dev dependency in api/. Use the command yarn workspace api add -D @netlify/zip-it-and-ship-it.

• You can learn more about the package here.

# Web

The web side of Redwood is packaged by Webpack into the ./web/dist folder.
