When you build a Web target or Web target files, the target or the files are copied from the target Source directory to the target Build directory. Building a target before you deploy it can be useful to verify links and make sure they work.
You can build Web target files in a separate action, but when you deploy a Web target or Web target files, the target files are built automatically before being deployed. You can find more information in Chapter 12, “Building and Deploying Web Targets”.
You can make sure that your Web pages appear and function as planned by inspecting the pages during development and then after deployment. Web servers are important for testing and deployment.
You can develop Web site applications that are independent of the application server used for production deployment. If your server-side scripting uses the Web Target object model, then mapping information supplied during deployment translates between the Web Target object model and the object model for the application server you choose.
