You (plural) seem to know a great deal about build systems, so I figured I would ask - what’s your opinion about Mill? It’s a not so well known build tool written in scala, but I find its underlying primitives are absolutely on point.

For those who don’t know, its build descriptors are just Scala classes with functions. A function calling another function denotes a dependency, and that’s pretty much it. The build tool will automatically take care of parallelizing build steps and caching them.

How do you think it relates to Nix and alia on a technical level?
