From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

[intro] bmakelib: The minimalist Makefile standard library you'd always wished for! (github.com)

I've had the (mis)fortune to deal w/ a good number of Makefiles over the years. Enough to take a liking to Gnu Make 🤷‍♂️

I've been haphazardly compiling a collection of common tasks that I'd like my Makefiles to do out-of-the-box for me.

The collection grew to a point where I thought it might benefit my fellow engineers in their day-to-day programming.

Hence bmakelib was born w/ an Apache v2.0 license 👶

It is essentially a collection of useful targets, recipes and variables you can use to augment your Makefiles.

The aim is not to simplify writing Makefiles but rather help you write cleaner and easier to read and maintain ones.

Everything is well tested via CI pipeline (yes, I wrote unittests for Makefiles 😎) and should work out of the box.

Please take a look and let me know what you think. I'd love to hear your thoughts and possibly your experience if you ever use bmakelib in your projects.

Whenever you see lots of hashtags, it's likely the post/comment is coming from Mastodon instead of Lemmy.
Still kinda mind-blowing how well that works
