I wish premake could gain more traction. It is the comprehensible alternative to Cmake etc.

I'd rather everyone use CMake than have to deal with yet another build system. Wouldn't be so bad if build systems could at least agree on the user interface and package registry format.

Xmake[0] is as-simple-as-premake and does IIRC everything Premake does and a whole lot more.

Completely useless in an airgapped environment

Could you elaborate on that?

I'm guessing it needs internet for everything and can't work with local repositories.

Not really a fan of Meson but I doubt that that's the case as it is very popular in big OSS projects and distributions aren't throwing a fit.

No?
