Xake is MAKE clone, which utilizes the power of F# programming language to provide simplistic syntax:

#r @"Xake.Core.dll"

open Xake

do xakeScript {
  rules [
    "main" ==> ["helloworld.exe"]
    "helloworld.exe" ..> csc {src !! "*.cs"}
  ]
}

Unlike many other tools it was made with declarative approach in mind. Such approach allows to internally track dependencies which in turn brings extra benefits such as:

• incremental build (only rebuild affected part)
• estimate build time (progress indicator)
• execute tasks in parallel
