alt Hacker NewsThe world has yet to standardize on a good crossplatform polyglot build system.
The only real such build systems are Buck and Bazel. But they have way too much baggage from their overlords.
It’s a shame.

Zig is pretty good for my use case. It may not be fully pollyglot at a technical level, but I can use it for my embedded C use case, for Jank to export the .cpp to other platforms, and thereby Clojure.
build systems using llvm as the backend are getting there, but zig is making their own compiler too.
