EngFlow Harnesses Google Bazel for Faster Monorepo Builds
After Google open sourced https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel, a version of its internal build system Blaze in 2015, it started taking off and has grown to a project with 20,000 starts on GitHub. Yet some of its creators realized that not every company is like Google and the project needed shepherding for the other 99%.
“And so while Google open sourced Bazel into the world, adopting Bazel and an building ecosystem of tools on top of Bazel needs to be done differently than the way Google has approached it internally,” said EngFlow CEO https://www.linkedin.com/in/helen-altshuler/, who was working with Google customers adopting Bazel at the time.
We have multiple core engineers who built Bazel, and who are continuously active contributors to the open source project today. We also have contributors to Chromium and Goma project as well, which is the open source for Chromium,” Altshuler said.
