Hi Milian,

It is really hard to describe the difference in a few paragraphs (or even
a few pages, for that matter). It is a very different approach (build2 is
not a project generator, for starters). My suggestion is to spend 5-10
minutes on the Introduction just to get the feel (you don't even need to
install anything -- complete terminal output is included):

Because you wouldn't mind something better? ;-)

Seriously, though, I am not advocating KDE switching to build2, not yet
at least. But it might be worth checking out and keeping an eye on. If
nothing else, it is a different perspective.
