@michalfita My tool queries an external repo for packages. In the repo every package has a folder, then subfolders for each version, then a config file for each intended platform. My tool will assume the package was built using it or is prebuilt, or the config will otherwise include a series of commands (with required build tools) that build the project.

This project is mainly to make C++ projects easier for me and to pass time, I'm not really expecting it to go anywhere.

@michalfita I was afraid of that. It's a cool project at least. I'll keep posted about it regardless

Are you tired of dealing with different C++ compilers for every platform, cmake/make/shell build scripts, and dealing with static libraries? Me too!

I'm currently working on a #cpp project manager that aims to unify these aspects into one tool (heavily inspired by #rust 's Cargo tool).

I hope that it may prove useful!

Guess who's working on a new language? This guy. Here's a snippet, anyone who can translate it to C gets a hypothetical snickers bar:

```
object Terms::[first: int64, second: int64] {
subroutine add::[self: @This] int64 {
expose self~~first + self~~second
}
}

subroutine main::[] {
data terms: Terms = Term<-[8, 9];
data result: int64;
run terms->add<-[] -> result;
expose result;
}
```

If you've ever played around with TI microcontrollers, you've probably had to use the Code Composer Studio, which is fine and all, but I found out recently they made their own open source C compiler.

It's nice to know that they not only have a compiler I can use (meaning I'm not locked into using an IDE), but that it's also on the AUR!
(`yay -S msp430-elf-binutils msp430-elf-gcc msp430-elf-gdb` :-) )
