Cloud AEM: when would you use "front end" pipeline build instead of "full stack"?

AEM build time is a signficant problem,as it takes 1-2 hours for each of our 5 envs, and you cant deploy a built artifiact from one end (e.g. dev) into another (e.g. test).  We have always done a full stack build, but I notice there is a front end build only. As AEM has front end (react etc) and backend (java, osgi files etc) in one repo, how does the bild process know if it should built font end only, or full stack? Presumably its unsafe to do FE, in case someone changed something in the backend.

Hi @tb3dock ,
It is the responsibility of the Program manager to configure the pipelines and deploy. Based in the code changes, you will decide on wether to deploy Full stack of front end. Full stack deploys the complete codebase - ui-apps, ui.core and all other packages. Front end pipeline deploys all the front end related code - css, html etc.  No bundles are deployed when you run your frontend pipeline. reference: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/implementing/using-cloud-manager/cicd-pipelines/introduction-ci-cd-pipelines.html?lang=en#understand-pipelines
