Hello, this can be achieved using source_dir property for your static site component in the app spec. For example something like this:
static_sites:
- name: frontend
environment_slug: html
github:
repo: digitalocean/sample-monorepo
branch: main
source_dir: dist
We can see it used in the monorepo sample. Hope this helps!
