  • buck2

    Build system, successor to Buck

  • I've so far found buck2 + reindeer to be pretty limited compared to bazel + rules_rust. rules_rust lets me give it my cargo workspace root, and it determines the dependencies needed for the whole workspace and creates a lock file with the needed data that I can check in. reindeer appears to want to generate BUCK files instead, and appears (based on how it's used in buck2 itself) to require a fake Cargo.toml that lists all of the crates.io dependencies required.

  • PyOxidizer

    A modern Python application packaging and distribution tool

  • Here is some example Github Action from PyOxidizer as a Kickstarter: https://github.com/indygreg/PyOxidizer/blob/main/.github/workflows/build-exe.yml

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • fac

    Fac is a general-purpose build system that runs on Linux only, which automatically tracks dependencies by observing the build commands in operation. (by droundy)

  • As far as making it easy, I enjoyed using fac at one point, but it was so slow in linux containers on macos that I had to stop using it, but that discovered all of the dependencies for me, which was very cool.

  • AECforWebAssembly

    A port of ArithmeticExpressionCompiler from x86 to WebAssembly, so that the programs written in the language can run in a browser. The compiler has been rewritten from JavaScript into C++.

  • My largest program to this day uses CMAKE: https://github.com/FlatAssembler/AECforWebAssembly/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt

  • rust-shed

    Repository containing Rust crates common between other Facebook open source projects (like Mononoke or Eden).

  • For packages that are primarily developed in a monorepo context but also published to crates.io, a Cargo manifest can be generated from Buck targets. For example shed/async_compression/Cargo.toml is generated.

  • rfcs

    RFCs for changes to Rust

  • My understanding is there are differences in behavior between rustfmt and cargo fmt that a lot of people using tools like this miss and get confused about. We might also be extending this in the future to more tools.

  • pyre-check

    Performant type-checking for python.

  • Internally we use Pyre for Python type checking: https://github.com/facebook/pyre-check

  • sapling

    A Scalable, User-Friendly Source Control System.

  • For example here is a commit generated by rustfmt without Cargo involved: https://github.com/facebook/sapling/commit/d73aed440b7f606c610407bd2b42754749d5b9ac

  • HHVM

    A virtual machine for executing programs written in Hack.

  • Here is a commit generated by clippy fix without Cargo involved: https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/commit/efea2c4dcc12fdbf3a2e3ce383bbdca2de5f93a9

  • hello-monorepo-bazel-example

    Bazel example polyglot (rust, c++, gRPC, docker) monorepo

  • Example: https://github.com/Heeten/hello-monorepo-bazel-example
