About:
Qbs is a high-performance build tool designed for projects across multiple platforms. It uses a declarative language to define builds, offering faster processing and greater flexibility than traditional tools. It is particularly well-suited for complex C++ and Qt projects.
Key Features:
  • Declarative build language
  • High performance and parallel builds
  • Cross-platform support (Linux, macOS, Windows)
  • Excellent integration with Qt and C++
  • Extensible via custom modules
Use Cases:
  • Developing large-scale C++ applications
  • Managing builds for embedded and desktop platforms
  • Streamlining Qt project configuration and compilation
Alternatives:
  • CMake – Industry standard, uses a scripting language; Qbs offers a more modern declarative approach.
  • Make – Low-level and imperative; Qbs provides higher-level project management and automatic dependency handling.
