What build automation systems have you used in your practice?

In practice, the following build automation systems are often used:

• Make — a classic tool for build automation, especially in C/C++ projects.
• Maven — a popular tool for building Java projects.
• Gradle — a modern tool for Java, Kotlin, and other languages, supporting declarative scripts.
• Ant — another tool for Java, more low-level compared to Maven.
• npm scripts — for automating tasks in JavaScript projects.
• Webpack — a module bundler for frontend projects.
• GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD — CI/CD systems that automate build, testing, and deployment.

The choice depends on the language, technology stack, and project requirements.
