In the field of software development, the term build is similar to that of any other field. That is, the construction of something that has an observable and tangible result.

Description

Historically, build has often referred either to the process of converting source code files into standalone software artifact(s) that can be run on a computer, or the result of doing so.

However, this is not the case with technologies such as Perl, Ruby or Python which are examples of interpreted languages.
