As far as I know /dist is for production environments. It contains uglified and similar files. But why do we need a /build folder ?

To answer your original question about the meaning of the dist folder: The shortform dist stands for distributable and refers to a directory where files will be stored that can be directly used by others without the need to compile or minify the source code that is being reused.
The dist folder, short for distribution folder, is dynamically generated when using the nuxt generate commands and includes the generated production ready HTML files and assets that are necessary to deploy and run your statically generated Nuxt application.
The build/interfaces folder contains compiler artifacts generated from project interfaces. These files use a similar structure, but only contain some of the fields listed above.
The dist folder is for production website it's not necessary to have it. It will contain for example your image, css, script, vendor folder ready for production (minified and concatenated).
Dist is for distribution and contains minified code. Build contains code that is not minified and not ready for production deployment.
