From 81256884939c25e32c53a4c5ea5869044a528cfe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vinta Chen Date: Sun, 16 Aug 2026 11:56:08 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] audit: sweep Build Tools to the shortlist cap MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Removed bitbake (no PyPI distribution, ships with Yocto — its users are embedded-Linux developers, fails the Serves Python Developers scope test). Removed platformio (1,255,169 downloads/month — embedded and IoT toolchain written in Python but used for C and C++ firmware work, same scope test as bitbake). Removed pybuilder (51,511 downloads/month — searches confirm niche adoption, small community, fails the obvious-choice bar). Reordered remaining entries: invoke (85.4M) and scons (924K) as obvious choices, doit (803K) as challenger.
