## Description: Apache Buildr is a build system for Java-based applications, including
support for Scala, Groovy and a growing number of JVM languages and
tools. We wanted something that’s simple and intuitive to use, so
we only need to tell it what to do, and it takes care of the rest.
But also something we can easily extend for those one-off tasks, with
a language that’s a joy to use. And of course, we wanted it to be
fast, reliable and have outstanding dependency management.
## Issues:
There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
## Activity:
The project is moving at a slow pace with a few commits in the last months.
We just successfully voted our last release, 1.5.6.
## Health report:
The project has been stable for a long while and the space of build tools for Java projects has been overall stagnant for a number of years.
