We use bazel for our builds at work, I think it works quite well, but then our bazel guy left the company and no one else dares touch it aside from basic updates because it’s really complex and a bit of a dark art in itself.
- rockwotj 4y agoHaha yeah I understand this well. I'm the Bazel guy at our company. Basic stuff is simple but as soon as you dip into more complex stuff like the queries and buildozer you quickly need to have a lot of information to be productive
- dijit 4y agoOut of interest, how did you learn Bazel? I've been trying for a while and, while I get the concepts, I'm struggling to get anywhere productive with it.
- rockwotj 4y agoI worked at Google, then created a bunch of stuff with Bazel (ie most of shortwave.com is built with Bazel). I've picked stuff up over a few years and often study open source rule sets to learn how stuff works under the hood
