Hi Basile,
Thank you.
This is a crucial point and a very fair concern.
I agree that any migration to a new build system should be accompanied
by clear, detailed documentation written for people with no prior
knowledge of Bazel.
If this proposal moves forward, I will make sure that creating
comprehensive, step-by-step guides is a top priority.
Best regards,
Haruhiko Nishizaki

Dear LibreOffice developers and contributors,
I recently opened Bug 168776
(https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=168776) to propose
migrating the LibreOffice build system from Make, autotools, and Perl to Bazel.
Why not, but then please document well and in details how to build Libreoffice
from source code.
Assume your reader know nothing about Bazel, don't have time to learn it, but
still want to compile Libreoffice and perhaps contribute to it.
Give (at least for Linux systems) several examples of Libreoffice
configurations and builds
Thanks
