About:
mx is a command-line tool and build system primarily used for developing GraalVM and Truffle-based language implementations. It manages complex project layouts, dependencies, and the build lifecycle for native code and Java projects. Its main value is simplifying the orchestration of building and testing high-performance language runtimes.
Key Features:
  • Manages multi-repository project layouts and dependencies
  • Orchestrates builds for Java and native code (C/C++)
  • Provides commands for running tests, benchmarks, and style checks
  • Integrates with the GraalVM ecosystem for language development
Use Cases:
  • Developing new programming languages using the Truffle framework
  • Building and testing the GraalVM compiler or related components
  • Managing dependencies for complex, multi-language open-source projects
Alternatives:
  • Maven – Maven is a general-purpose Java build tool, whereas mx is specialized for the specific workflow and dependency management needs of GraalVM development.
  • Gradle – Gradle is a highly flexible build automation tool, but mx is purpose-built for orchestrating the build of an entire language runtime stack.
