build time
Code processing period
Build time is the period when source code is compiled, linked, and transformed into executable software, as opposed to runtime when the program actually executes.
Decisions or configurations made at build time are baked into the final product: The feature flag is set at build time, not runtime.
Build time also refers to how long this compilation process takes: The new caching reduced our build time from twenty minutes to three.
