Pants vs. Bazel: Why Pants may be the right choice for your team

• pants

  35 3,100 9.8 Python

  The Pants Build System

  

The Pants daemon (pantsd) is now enabled by default, so "noop" runs do not recalculate anything. Pants is about 40% rust at this point, but there is still some Python in the per-run request path, and so a noop run takes about a second (regardless of repository size). We're porting the client to rust to lower that latency, and will be removing more Python from the request path over time.

• Bazel

  136 22,295 10.0 Java

  a fast, scalable, multi-language and extensible build system

  

How do you handle cache correctness for things like Linux C++ compilers that like to spew their dependencies all over the file system? Bazel doesn't bother which seems very risky to me.

  Configuration as Code with ECMAScript

  

If I were writing a build system today (and I did just write one actually to test out some ideas) I would use Typescript for the language with something like jk to provide hermeticity. Typescript has many advantages, especially over Python, but mainly:
