Bazel is the thing that I've missed after leaving Google, (lol "bazel menu"). Back then I was using it on the surface, there were no .bzl files, but internal python rules. I actually hated it when I started, because i was like - WTF is this shit, then I've learned. My best example would be a CI system, given a CL (changelist) it can tell you exactly what targets need to get built. In our current CI - we have put extreme whitelsits - e.g. if you have touched this folder with C++ files, these are the .sln files to build. But can't move to bazel yet (mostly Windows shop). I actively use it for my home projects (linux + windows), but that's about it.
