Re:Buck – A build system developed and used by Facebook by xyzzy_plugh on Tuesday March 14, 2017 @11:49AM (#13868503)
But I love the built-in implicit rules. I use these frequently.

Often, I write a little test program in C or C++. I name the file "foo.c". Then, to build it I simply type `make foo`.

Sure the rules may be a bit stale, but there isn't much software i use today that I could use in a near identical manner 40 years ago. Make has truly stood the test of time.
