+    \title build
+    \brief Builds a project.
+
+    \section1 Synopsis
+
+    \code
+    qbs build [options] [[configuration-name] [property:value] ...]
+    \endcode
+
+    \section1 Description
+
+    Builds projects in one or more configurations.
+
+    You can specify \l{Project Item}{project}, \l{Product Item}{product}, or
+    \l{List of Modules}{module} properties, as well as a \l{Profile Item}
+    {profile} separately for each configuration.
+
+    This is the default command.
+
+    If the build directory does not exist, it will be created.
+
+    For more information, see \l{Building Applications}.

+
+    \include cli-parameters.qdocinc configuration-name
+    \include cli-parameters.qdocinc property
+
+    \section1 Examples
+
+    Builds the application specified by the \c .qbs file in the current
+    directory using the default profile:
+
+    \code
+    qbs
+    \endcode
+
+    Builds the application using four concurrent build jobs:
+
+    \code
+    qbs -j 4
+    \endcode
+
+    Builds the default configuration of an application using the profile called
+    \c Android:
+
+    \code
+    qbs build profile:Android
+    \endcode
+
+    Builds the application using different \l{Module cpp}{cpp module} properties
+    for debug and release configurations. For the debug configuration, warnings
+    will cause the build to fail, whereas for the release configuration, the
+    size of the build artifacts will be optimized:
+
+    \code
+    qbs build debug modules.cpp.treatWarningsAsErrors:true release modules.cpp.optimization:small
+    \endcode
