Tundra, a build system

Tundra is a high-performance code build system designed to give the best possible incremental build times even for very large software projects.

Tundra is portable and works on

• macOS
• Linux
• FreeBSD
• Windows (XP or later - binary releases require Vista/64 or later - for XP support build from source using MinGW.)

Porting to UNIX-like platforms will be very easy, porting to other platforms will take a little bit of work in a few well-defined places.

See doc/manual.asciidoc for more detailed usage information.

There is a companion Visual Studio 2012 addin that might be useful. See https://github.com/deplinenoise/tundra-vsplugin for details.

Binaries

Windows installers are available for download in the releases tab.

macOS package is available via Homebrew: brew install tundra
