Cake VS BuildVersioning

Cake

• Unpopular opinion: CI/CD engines are an awful idea
  6 projects | /r/devops | 4 Feb 2023

  This is why 90-99% of our builds are done with Cake. It isolates all of it and you can run the build locally if you want.

  You may use other tools too: psake, make, cake, fake or any other *ake you are familiar with. I look at them as a tools that make build tasks behind simple commands and help me answer: How did I run that code again?

• .NET build tool using Bullseye and SimpleExec
  6 projects | dev.to | 22 Feb 2022

  NAnt was quite a popular build tool used by projects of all sizes targeting .NET Framework on Windows. I have written many complex build systems using NAnt in the past. But XML based DSL was quite clunky to use and maintain. Besides, it was always a daunting task to explain to a new dev on the team. With .NET Core/.NET becoming a cross-platform framework, CAKE and FAKE gained a lot of adoption providing a C# and F# based DSL for build tasks accordingly.

• Nuke Build - best build automation system
  3 projects | dev.to | 7 Dec 2021

  Cake (C# Make) - simple, easy to set up, and with a lot of extensions scripting with C#.

  I got the example and the answer I needed on this thread: https://github.com/cake-build/cake/discussions/3564

• Creating reusable build scripts with NUKE components
  2 projects | dev.to | 28 Jul 2021

  For those not familiar with it, Cake is a build automation system with a C#-based DSL. It is based on the concept of tasks, which are small units of work, like restoring packages, building, or testing, which can have dependencies on, or trigger, other tasks.

• A super simple make wrapper for docker/podman that runs all your targets in a container - just a utility I put together to make my life slightly easier, nothing fancy
  2 projects | /r/linux | 3 Jun 2021

  Just a note: there's already a very active community of the same name for the build utility Cake.

  Looks interesting! Although the name clashes with Cake (C# Make) project which could be confusing - https://cakebuild.net/
