Building and Running Webapps

It is possible to build and run webapps using the build-webapp and run-webapp subcommand.

To make it easier to build once, and deploy to with varying configuration, compilation and static page generation are separated in the build-webapp and run-webapp steps, and the use of the environment variables via process.env is detected at compile-time and placeholder substituted which will be filled in at runtime.

This offers much more flexibilty in configuration and deployment than standard build methods.

$ cd ~/cerc
$ git clone git@git.vdb.to:cerc-io/test-progressive-web-app.git
$ laconic-so build-webapp --source-repo ~/cerc/test-progressive-web-app
