Network Engineer at LenovoGreat build tool, if only a bit verbose
Python. Anything we want with the build system, can be scripted in python. Instead of going with some new language (looking at you cmake), this tried and tested method works very well. As it is built on python, it supports most of the common platforms, many compilers and targets out of the box. On top of it, scons-local can be distributed with the project, one less dependency is always a benefit. One advantage scons has over others that it builds the targets, not just the build-files, unlike cmake.
