    Counterpoint: watching little green checkmarks appear when my PR passes a pipeline step gives me dopamine

      I’m a bit confused. I thought “build system” referred to systems like autotools, scons or cmake. How are they related to green checkmarks? Couldn’t one also get green checkmarks when using a build shell script or makefile?

        Is a CI/CD pipeline not a build system?

        (this isn’t a “gotcha”, I genuinely may have misunderstood the post)
