OpenHub has a language category "Build languages". I cant find their definition of this category, but it should be discoverable using their OSS code. e.g. https://www.openhub.net/accounts/jayvdb/languages , which seems to include Makefiles, cmake, and it should also include Autoconf. Bazel files are probably included.
This is valuable for people who do devops-type work , as their changes end up in all types of formats. e.g.
.github/workflows/*.yml
(and other files) are build files, whilst other yaml files are data. Also PowerShell/Bash/etc scripts in a project with a different major language are probably build scripts, while they should be classified as 'programming' if it is the dominant language of the repo.Beta Was this translation helpful?
