MakeMe is a modern replacement for the venerable make and not so popular autoconf utilities.
MakeMe builds directly or generates native Makefiles and IDE projects from a single, unified project description. MakeMe provides a higher level of abstraction for defining software builds. MakeMe is open source, so use it now in your projects.
