It also supports this syntax.

    target("foo", {
      kind = "binary",
      files = { "src/*.cpp" },
      includedirs = { "src" },
      defines = { "FOO", "BAR=BAZ" },
    })

> not have `target("name", function (ctx) ... end)`.

It supports this syntax.

https://xmake.io/guide/project-configuration/syntax-descript...

  target("foo", function ()
      set_kind("binary")
      add_files("src/*.cpp")
      add_defines("FOO")
  end)

It can generate a Visual Studio project, then use the xmake CLI to integrate and compile the project, and supports debugging and IntelliSense.

C++ Modules examples:

xmake also support D and dub.

we can also try xmake. https://github.com/xmake-io/xmake

Xmake can be used to directly build source code (like with Make or Ninja), or it can generate project source files like CMake or Meson. It also has a built-in package management system to help users integrate C/C++ dependencies.

try

    wget https://github.com/xmake-io/xmake/releases/download/v2.6.5/xmake-v2.6.5.tar.gz
    tar xf xmake-v2.6.5.tar.gz 
    make build

we need not run `cd xmake`

no, it should be `v2.6.5/xmake-v2.6.5.tar.gz` instead of `tags/v2.6.5.tar.gz`

    https://github.com/xmake-io/xmake/releases/download/v2.6.5/xmake-v2.6.5.tar.gz

we need pull all submodules, you can see https://xmake.io/#/guide/installation?id=installation

    git submodule update --init

Or you can download full source code from releases. https://github.com/xmake-io/xmake/releases/download/v2.6.5/x...

Xmake is also based on tbox as a c base library.

you can also try xmake. It use lua, not DSL.

We can also try https://github.com/xmake-io/xmake

Xmake has Clion/IDEA, vscode, vs, sublime and qtcreator plugin.

xmake can also easily write some lua scripts to dump the build dependency graph https://github.com/xmake-io/xmake

Interesting, what is the difference between it and other build tools, such as cmake, meson?

Great!

Oh, it seems to be a great terminal ui library.
