Overview

Soup is a cross platform build system for developing software as a community, with a primary focus on developer velocity. Soup was built from the ground up to support guaranteed minimum incremental builds while allowing for reusability of both build logic and runtime code.

The system utilizes a three phased approach to building code. A declarative frontend Recipe tells the build what to build. A generate layer uses Extensions to define how to build. And finally, the evaluate engine executes the build Operations to generate the desired output.

The clean isolation individual projects, coupled with the ability to write custom build logic work together to allow for easy authoring of a package that can be shared with other teams or organizations through a public source based Package Manager.

The entire system is programming language agnostic and allows for easy integration with any language. This allows for developers to learn one solution and apply that knowledge to any project regardless of the languages it uses.
