Nx
Trusted by developers, enterprises, and open-source projects. Whether your workspace has a single project or a thousand, Nx will keep your CI fast and your workspace maintainable. Next generation build system with first-class mono repo support and powerful integrations. Nx makes scaling easy. Modern techniques such as distributed task execution and computation caching make sure your CI times remain fast, even as you keep adding projects to your workspace. It can figure out whether the same computation has run before and can restore the files and the terminal output from its cache. Smart, automated, dynamic distribution of tasks across multiple machines to get maximum parallelization and CPU-efficient CI runs. Share your local computation cache with teammates and your CI system for maximum efficiency. Nothing is faster than not running a task. Nx analyzes your project graph and can differentiate it against a baseline to determine which projects changed.

Bazel
Bazel is an open-source build and test tool designed for multi-language, multi-platform software projects that delivers fast, incremental builds by rebuilding only what’s necessary and leveraging advanced local and remote caching, optimized dependency analysis, and parallel execution. It natively supports Java, C++, Go, Android, iOS, and many other languages, scaling seamlessly from small repositories to massive monorepos and complex Continuous Integration environments. Its declarative extension language lets teams add or customize rules for new languages and platforms, tapping into a growing community ecosystem. Bazel offers query capabilities to inspect and understand dependency graphs, comprehensive versioned documentation and release notes, and robust support via GitHub, Slack, and monthly community updates. Trusted by industry leaders like Google, Stripe, and Dropbox to build heavy-duty, mission-critical infrastructure and applications.

FASTBuild
FASTBuild is a high-performance, open-source build system for Windows, Linux and OS X. It supports highly scalable compilation, caching and network distribution. From the largest studios in the world to the smallest independent developers, FASTBuild is used in production every day to develop for PC/Mac/Linux, Consoles, Smartphones and retro systems. FASTBuild gives you all the tools you need to speed up your builds, allowing for improvements of 10x or more over other build systems. FASTBuild was designed from the ground up to support parallel compilation. The highly optimized main build pipeline is designed to be as thin as possible, dispatching build tasks to worker threads to maximize parallelism. FASTBuild has no artificial dependency bottlenecks like those present when compiling with Visual Studio/MSBuild. Unlike Visual Studio, FASTBuild is able to precisely manage the number of CPU cores used during a build avoiding excessive idle spots or excessive context switching.

Bun
Bun is a fast, all-in-one JavaScript, TypeScript, and JSX toolkit that ships as a single executable and combines a high-performance runtime, package manager, test runner, and bundler designed as a drop-in replacement for Node.js with broad compatibility and dramatically reduced startup times and memory usage. Written in Zig and powered by Apple’s JavaScriptCore, Bun can execute JavaScript/TypeScript files, scripts, and packages with significantly faster performance than traditional tooling while supporting zero-config TypeScript, JSX, and React out of the box. Its built-in package manager installs dependencies up to 30x faster than npm with workspaces, global caching, migration support, and dependency auditing. Bun’s test runner is Jest-compatible with built-in coverage and concurrent execution, and the bundler processes TypeScript, JSX, CSS, and more without configuration, including support for single-file executables.xx
