build Command - Medusa CLI Reference
Create a standalone build of the Medusa application that you can deploy to production.
This creates a build that:
- Doesn't rely on the source TypeScript files.
- Can be copied to a production server reliably.
The build is output to a new .medusa/server directory.
Refer to the Build Medusa Application guide for next steps.

Build Medusa Admin#
By default, the Medusa Admin is built to the .medusa/server/public/admin directory.
If you want a separate build to host the admin as a standalone application, such as on Vercel, pass the --admin-only option as explained in the Options section. This outputs the admin to the .medusa/admin directory instead.
