yabs

Yet another build system

A build system for multiple architectures and operating systems. Project files define Makefiles to be written that can be copied to a remote system or be completely built on a remote system.

Status

yabs can currently self host. Major things that are left to implement are:

• Remote jobs (ssh and or git)
• Better language detection (& add more languages)
• Better distribution tarballs
• Pre/Post scripting
• Direct building (omitting Make)

Yabs currently only works well with C and C++ and only with certain file extensions

Building

You may use the Makefile provided, a qmake profile is available if you wish to compile with clang:

qmake "CONFIG+=clang"
