This is SCons, a tool for building software (and other files). SCons is implemented in Python, and its "configuration files" are actually Python scripts, allowing you to use the full power of a real scripting language to solve build problems. You do not, however, need to know Python to use SCons effectively.
Documentation for SCons is available at:
http://www.scons.org/documentation.html
Running SCons requires Python 3.5 or higher. There should be no other dependencies or requirements to run SCons.
By default, SCons knows how to search for available programming tools on various systems--see the SCons man page for details. You may, of course, override the default SCons choices made by appropriate configuration of Environment construction variables.
SCons is distributed under the MIT license, a full copy of which is available in the LICENSE file.
