- bluejekyll 8y agoThanks for posting that. I understand what they’re getting at, but they didn’t quite convince me in the opening that this isn’t a build structure problem vs. a build tool issue. There’s a lot of work to do what they’re trying to achieve, and at best you’ll possibly get a faster build? Maybe it’s easier to configure? Though that also wasn’t obvious to me that there would be a large gain there.

My takeaway was that having a single universal build system is easier to deal with than multiple splintered ones, full of duplicated effort: http://nibblestew.blogspot.com/2019/02/on-possible-futures-of-meson.html http://nibblestew.blogspot.com/2019/02/on-possible-futures-o...
