It is an Open Source software construction tool—that is, a next-generation build tool. Think of it as an improved, cross-platform substitute for the classic Make utility with integrated functionality similar to autoconf/automake and compiler caches such as ccache. In short, it is an easier, more reliable and faster way to build software.

Redo

It is a competitor to the long-lived make program. Unlike other such competitors, it captures the essential simplicity and flexibility of make, while avoiding its flaws. It manages to do this while being simultaneously simpler than make, more flexible than make, and more powerful than make, and without sacrificing performance - a rare combination of features.

Conveyor

It makes distributing desktop and command line apps as easy as shipping a web app. It's a tool not a service, it generates self-upgrading packages for Windows, macOS and Linux using each platform's native package formats without requiring you to have those operating systems.
