production code not minified

[shunjizhan]

currently we use tsc --build tsconfig.json to build production code, and TS doesn't support minification out of box.

We can pipe TS-compiled code to other minification tools to make bundle as small as possible.

I think that's fine because this is not intended for frontend usage and code size is less an issue for backend servers or tools.
