Toybox?
I haven’t followed the project in a bit, I really should check in and see what 
they have finished but I know that project aimed to get most if not all of a 
build environment recreated in a portable form so if you haven’t seen it then I 
recommend it. 

If I may ask, why do you disapprove of make? I would like to see it redone but 
curious your reasons.
