- SCons is a software construction tool—that is, a superior alternative to the
- classic Make build tool that we all know and love.
-
- SCons is implemented as a Python script and set of modules, and SCons
- configuration files are actually executed as Python scripts. This gives
- SCons many powerful capabilities not found in other software build tools."
