1 Meson is an open source build system meant to be both extremely fast,
2 and, even more importantly, as user friendly as possible.
4 The main design point of Meson is that every moment a developer spends
5 writing or debugging build definitions is a second wasted.
6 So is every second spent waiting for the build system to actually start
7 compiling code.
9 Features
