[![License](https://img.shields.io/github/license/raviqqe/turtle.svg?style=flat-square)](LICENSE)

Clone of the [Ninja build system](https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja) in Rust

## Goals

- Safe (no `unsafe`) and fast reimplementation of the Ninja build system in Rust
- Improved frontend support
  - Full output from build rules and no output from Turtle by default
  - More customizable build/rule/progress/error output

## Install

```sh
cargo install --git https://github.com/raviqqe/turtle
```

## Usage

```sh
turtle
```

For more information, see `turtle --help`.
