How to build

Modify your webpack config

    var lang = (process.env.LANG || process.env.LOCALE || '')
    if (lang) lang = '/' + lang
    module.exports = {
        /* ... */
        build: {
            index: path.resolve(__dirname, '../dist' + lang + '/index.html'),
            assetsRoot: path.resolve(__dirname, '../dist' + lang)
        }
    }
    ```
