Description

Hi Team.

I just updated the builder on our application from 'build-angular:browser-esbuild' -> build-angular:application.

I now see the build output is in a subdirectory called browser.

This change will require people to update container builds or CI build configurations. Is there anyway to disable this behaviour?

Regards,
Tarek

Minimal Reproduction

1. Change builder 'build-angular:browser-esbuild' -> build-angular:application'
2. Build
3. Dist folder will contain a folder called browser.

Exception or Error

Dist folder is not the dist folder. The browser subfolder folder is the dist folder

This is the espected behaviour since the new builder supports ssr.

The regular/prerendered spa app will be in outputpath/browser while the ssr app will be in ouputpath/server.
