alt Hacker NewsI am delighted to hear this. Please do not forget support for Windows.
Let me share with you my previous screeds on this topic:

They’re semi-adjacent in that they are about build systems that don’t suck. (buck2 is also mostly TheWay but also not usable outside of Meta and has room for improvement).
Save us from Git and CMake Steve! Please I beg you!!
To be clear, we are not building a build system, just a VCS. :) we do use buck2 internally though.
I do care about Windows, having used it for years at this point. The client is git or jj, so Windows support is there for sure. For some of the other stuff we’re doing, we’ll see what customer demand is like. Obviously there are tons of devs on Windows, but we also have to make calls about priorities too.
