Could you explain a bit more why - in practice - you think Bazel is 'next generation' compared to Make? Every time I've encountered Bazel thus far in the wild

Every time I've encountered Bazel thus far in the wild I've found it an atrocious experience.
I haven't yet found anything I prefer to simple Make, and even auto tools while awful, are at least completely a known quantity.
- chubot 10y agoYeah the biggest problem with Bazel is that it has this big JVM dependency. And at least the internal version makes you specify your dependencies twice for C++, rather than using something like gcc -M. (And I believe that is true for Java too.)
