I'm about to experiment with a piece of software (the meson build system). Now, I've read this and that and I've watched a couple of video presentation by the author who acknowledges that the software is opinonated and gives a reasonably convincing argument for why that is a good (or at least appropriate) thing for a build system.
Fine. I'll buy it for the interim. But .. what are the opinons? What rules does the tool enforce that I might not be used to from other tools in the same space? Is there a list? If so I can't find it. I'm not asking because I want to use them as a reason to reject this thing, I've commited myself in my own mind to trying it. But I'd like to get into the required mindset. Only there doesn't seem to be a single place to look.
