Hello

The one important difference that I know :

ng build :

Used to build project for development environment which minimizes development efforts in terms of performance.

ng build --prod

It is used to build an application for production environment deployment which may take more time to generate minified files and depends on the structure of a project.

In the end, the gold is to generate production-ready project

We can choose any of them as per requirement.

I hope it helps you

Thanks
