In an effort to solve my build problems I initially tried to create my own
build system but it turned into a nightmare.  Not wanting to devote the
time it would take to get working, I abandoned it.  I later came up with an
idea (that I'm sure isn't new) of a way to create a really simple build
system.  It only took me a few days to write and it works perfectly.  I am
now using it in production.  It's super easy to understand, does only what
needs to be done (minimal builds), and supports downloading and caching of
remote libraries and installing, configuring, and kicking off a development
web server.  It also works in Linux, Mac & Windows!

The code is in the "builder" directory of
https://github.com/blakemcbride/Kiss
It also includes the "bld" shell script.
I am considering re-writing it to make it a generic build system if there
is interest.

But writing your own build system?
