| # [Bazel](https://bazel.build) |
| |
| *{Fast, Correct} - Choose two* |
| |
| Build and test software of any size, quickly and reliably. |
| |
| * **Speed up your builds and tests**: |
| Bazel only rebuilds what is necessary. |
| With advanced local and distributed caching, optimized dependency analysis and |
| parallel execution, you get fast and incremental builds. |
| |
| * **One tool, multiple languages**: Build and test Java, C++, Android, iOS, Go |
| and a wide variety of other language platforms. Bazel runs on Windows, macOS, |
| and Linux. |
| |
| * **Scalable**: Bazel helps you scale your organization, codebase and Continuous |
| Integration system. |
| It handles codebases of any size, in multiple repositories or a huge monorepo. |
| |
| * **Extensible to your needs**: Easily add support for new languages and |
| platforms with Bazel's familiar extension language. Share and re-use language |
| rules written by the growing Bazel community. |
