When I first clone an Elixir repository, usually the first thing I do is run `mix do deps.get, compile`. It gets the job done, but it's a bit verbose. Build tools in other languages (e.g. Rust's cargo, Haskell's stack, Gleam's gleam) have a "build" command that both pulls dependencies *and* compiles the app. The proposed "build" command for mix would functionally be the same running `mix do deps.get, compile`, just in a smaller package.
I realize that I can make such an alias in my own projects, and I have, but I wonder if this would be useful for the larger Elixir community. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elixir-lang-core" group.
