Description
From @bhavincb on May 4, 2018 11:9
if nativescript have some way easily switch between debug build to release build it will be great feature.
currently when we run tns debug android it will build debug build.
after that running tns run android --release commang will build release package.
not if we run debug command again it will again run full build. which is quite time cosuming.
so if both debug and release build uses different directory then build time can be optimized greatly.

Research direction
Start by tracing the tns debug android and tns run android --release command paths to identify where their build outputs are selected. Done means debug and release builds use separate directories and switching between commands no longer triggers an unnecessary full rebuild.
