Ninja is enough build system

345 lines of well-commented Python. Cute as a button! It doesn't seem to re-use already-built files, though.

I wonder how many lines that would add. I actually have a bit of Python in my build pipeline that basically just goes `if os.path.getmtime(src) > os.path.getmtime(target)` and it works fine (and took far less effort than trying to shoehorn that build step into my Makefile).

Another interesting implementation is Shake: https://shakebuild.com/

It is technically a Haskell DSL, but supports Ninja files, time estimates and has tools for linting and profiling.
