## About the changes
https://github.blog/changelog/2022-10-24-npm-v9-0-0-released/ introduced
a breaking change in the way they handle files inside package.json which
caused some issues with the way we pack and distribute Unleash:
> npm pack now follows a strict order of operations when applying ignore
rules. If a files array is present in the package.json, then rules in
.gitignore and .npmignore files from the root will be ignored.
What we discovered is that when having a nested .gitignore (the one we
have inside frontend), `npm publish` was taking that nested .gitignore
into account (despite the fact that we also have a package.json with
files inside the same folder). We tricked this by removing the `build`
folder from `frontend/.gitignore` and instead adding it into the root
`.gitignore` which is being ignored by `npm publish` following what's
stated in the release note above.

## About the changes
This is based on @nunogois suggestion to split the build in two, so we
don't build the frontend every time we run `yarn`
e2e frontend tests were forced to run by modifying frontend/README.md
### Important files
Some github actions had to be updated to also build the frontend. The
Dockerfile building our docker image was also looked into but it should
work as is
## Discussion points
This is a potentially risky operation as we might overlook something
that requires building the frontend which might lead to invalid builds.
We need to make sure when we do this we don't have any release planned.
