+Serving a production Webpack build locally
+------------------------------------------
+
+In some scenarios, you may want to run a production Webpack build locally. To serve a production build locally:
+
+#. Create an ``env.config.js`` file containing the configuration for local development, with the exception of ``NODE_ENV='production'``.
+#. Run ``npm run build`` to build the production assets. The output assets will rely on the local development configuration specified in the prior step.
+#. Add an NPM script ``serve`` to your application's ``package.json`` (i.e., ``"serve": "fedx-scripts serve"``).
+#. Run ``npm run serve`` to serve your production build assets. It will attempt to run the build on the same port specified in the ``env.config.js`` file.
+
+Local module configuration for TypeScript
+-----------------------------------------
+
+#. Create file in repository `tsconfig.json`, with a clause `"extends": "@edx/frontend-build"`
+#. Set "rootDir" to the root of the source code folders
+#. Set "include" to wildcard patterns specifying the subdirectories/files under rootDir where source code can be found
+#. Include any wildcards under rootDir that should be excluded using "exclude"
+
+```Sample json
+{
+  "extends": "@edx/frontend-build",
+  "compilerOptions": {
+    "rootDir": ".",
+    "outDir": "dist"

+# Serving production Webpack builds locally with `fedx-scripts`
+
+## Summary
+
+The build-and-deploy process for micro-frontends (MFEs) throughout Open edX include running the MFE through a production Webpack build process, relying on configuration specified in a `webpack.prod.config.js` file. The resulting file assets are what ultimately get released to production and served to users. However, it is currently non-obvious how to preview the production file assets generated by `npm run build` locally should the need arise (e.g., to have more confidence in the resulting Webpack output and/or behavior before relying on the build-and-deploy process to release to a staging/production environment).
+
+## Context
+
+Most micro-frontends (MFEs) throughout the Open edX platform rely on a `npm run build` script that runs a production Webpack build based on the configuration specified in a `webpack.prod.config.js` file. The `webpack-prod.config.js` may be provided either by consumers in the root of their MFE's repository (i.e., typically using `createConfig` to extend/override parts of the default production Webpack configuration), or simply rely on the default `webpack.prod.config.js` configuration file provided by `@edx/frontend-build`.
+
+The output from `npm run build` is generated in a Git-ignored `dist` directory, and contains the actual files that should be deployed to production.
+
+Included in the `dist` directory's files is the MFE's `index.html` file that needs to be served for all routes the user may try loading. By simply loading `index.html` in the browser, it will inevitably run into some issues (e.g., not supporting React routing, etc.).
+
+To mitigate this, this ADR describes a new mechanism to provide a standard, documented way to serve the generated assets from the production Webpack build when running `npm run build`.
+
+# Decision
+
+We will create a new `serve` command for `fedx-scripts` that creates an Express.js server to run the generated `dist` file assets (e.g., `index.html`) on the `PORT` specified in the MFE's `env.config.js` and/or `.env.development|private` file(s) on `localhost`.
+
+If no `env.config.js` and/or `.env.development|private` file(s) exist and/or no `PORT` setting is specified those files, the `serve` command will fallback to a default port 8080, which is similar to the default ports our typical example MFE applications use.
+
+# Implementation
+
+The new `serve` command will live as under a new `scripts` directory under `lib`.
+
+Once in place, a MFE application may add a `serve` script to its NPM scripts in the `package.json` file:
+
+```json
+{
+    "scripts": {
+        "serve": "fedx-scripts serve"
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Then, running `npm run serve` in the root of that MFE application will run the new `serve` command in `@edx/frontend-build`, serving the assets in the MFE's `dist` directory on the `PORT` specified in the `env.config.js` file or `.env.development|private` file(s).
