XCOMMON build system
====================

The XCOMMON build system is built on top of the GNU Makefile build system. The
aspiration of the XCOMMON build system is to accelerate the development of Xcore
applications. Instead of having to express dependencies explicitly in Makefiles,
users are intended to follow particular folder structures and naming
conventions, from which dependencies are inferred automatically.

The XCOMMON build system depends on use of :ref:`XMAKE <xmake_manual>`
specifically. It cannot be used with a generic port of GNU Make.
