by using `yarn build`, can we only build special system version (like linux) for kibana?  
PS: the default is build `macos`, `windows`, `linux` version

Hello,

You should be able to modify the build task in package.json to not build for all platforms by default. Update the line:

`"build": "node scripts/build --all-platforms"`

To be just:

`"build": "node scripts/build"`

Regards,  
Aaron

no, I read the source code. if we use "node scripts/build", the script will get platforms of you local environment. but I am developing in mac, and I wanna build only linux version for saving time
