Whether they run in environments where a shell is nearby has no bearing on whether they are built or tested in environments where a shell is near and sufficient

Whether they run in environments where a shell is nearby has no bearing on whether they are built or tested in environments where a shell is near and sufficient for the task.
- almostgotcaught 2y agoPasting what I responded to the other person talking about build systems: Just curious: where exactly is the shell in `cmake -GNinja`? Or is CMake not a build system hmmm? Nevermind that some people use bazel or meson or something ... other than shell... Shell scripts in your build system are a code smell. In cpp projects it's covering up for people that don't how to use the actually correct tool for the job: the CMake scripting language.
