Lana - V C++ Build System

A simple, fast C++ build tool designed for modern C++ projects. Lana compiles itself with V and targets portable C++ workflows without relying on heavyweight generators.

Documentation

• 📚 Canonical guide: docs/guide.md now hosts the full documentation (installation, configuration, directives, troubleshooting).
• 🧩 Reusable snippets: Shared markdown/JSON data lives under docs/snippets and docs/commands.json. The CLI help output and initializer templates consume these files directly.

Quick Start

See docs/snippets/quickstart.md for the exact commands surfaced by lana init, the README template, and lana --help.

Project Structure

docs/snippets/project_structure.md is the single source for structure diagrams used across the README, guide, and generated projects.

Commands & Options

The CLI help text is generated from docs/commands.json. Update that file to add or modify commands/options once, and every consumer (help output, initializer docs, website) stays in sync.
