Pants 2 replacement for Pants 1

Open cczona opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Hi! I'm a maintainer on the Pants open source project, a build system that was originally written in Python (Pants 1) then was rewritten from the ground up (Pants 2) using Rust for the core engine. Additional info about how Pants 2 takes advantage of Rust https://blog.pantsbuild.org/fast-incremental-builds-speculation-cancellation/. Though the two projects share name and maintainers, Pants 2 is a wholly new codebase with different design goals. Meanwhile Pants 1 continues to be used and supported in its original incarnation.

Would it be appropriate to open a PR adding Pants to the list? And if so, would creating a new heading, Development Tools > Build Systems be 👍? Pants is more powerful than a command runner, which is the closest fit among the existing headings.
