Prism1.0.0

Prism scans a project, identifies its language and build system, checks the required tools, and presents a single way to build it. It addresses the friction of switching between different build commands and discovering missing compilers or frameworks before a build begins. Project detection covers C++, C#, Rust, Python, Node.js, Java, and other supported project types, although C# support remains in development and may not work reliably.

It recognizes CMake projects through CMakeLists.txt, .NET projects through .csproj or .sln files, Cargo projects through Cargo.toml, Make-based C projects through Makefile, Python projects through setup.py or pyproject.toml, and Maven or Gradle Java projects through pom.xml or build.gradle. Before building, Prism verifies whether the necessary build tools are installed and provides installation guidance when they are absent. Its unified build interface works across the supported languages and build systems, while profiling and timing features show how long builds take.

Prism suits developers working on mixed-language repositories, learners exploring unfamiliar build ecosystems, and teams that want one build workflow across different projects. It is an open-source x64 Windows program in the System Tools category, published by Andrea, with the project also supporting macOS and Linux.
