Hi Olaf, For an example, the build tool helps automatically build and test the examples on the ASF Jenkins.
Most problems we recently had in compiler and framework didn’t break the build but they broke the examples. So building the examples with maven for example makes us detect stuff like that easier. And usually I have never, ever in my life worked at a large corporation relying on the proprietary build system of an IDE.

But the output seems to me that there'e some styles missing [1]. However, probably I'm annoying you with this topic but I still don't understand the benefit of using a build tool to compile the examples. Maybe I'm a fool or to old for this stuff. I understand that this maybe makes sense if somebody would like to build the examples without using an IDE. But in case of the MDL examples the tasks.json is included in the .vscode folder. And for me that implies that you have a working VSCode IDE with a working (already build) SDK. So in this case you just could call asconfigc without the need to download and re-build the whole stuff. Could somebody enlighten me?
