Espresso

You wouldn't use a sledgehammer to hang a picture frame, would you?

Espresso is an experimental Java build tool for modern development.

• Simple: Build for microservices and non-monoliths
• Portable: Built with Go, it can compile for every platform
• First party extensions: First party extensions for tooling and common patterns

Getting Started

Getting started is simple. At its core, Espresso is a simple binary executable. You can include it in your repository or put it in your path.

1. Place the espresso executable within your PATH. On Unix-like systems, this can be /usr/local/bin
2. Run espresso init --name "My First Espresso Project"
3. That's it! You can open espresso.yml and take a look around.
