Aptivi<p><strong>Announcing the new script-based build&nbsp;system</strong></p><p>We began exploring options to improve the build system for all our projects that was first established around 2021, starting from the Nitrocid KS project. We had initialized the Nitrocid PPA packaging in 2020, then improved it quite a bit in 2021 with <a href="https://github.com/Aptivi-Archives/ks-offline-packaging" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">a new repository</a>, which is archived now as part of our efforts in 2023 to make use of the <a href="https://github.com/Aptivi/Nitrocid/commit/11263240cef088efbd7aa34cec13172d61940c13" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Makefiles</a>.</p><p>Since then, we’ve started increasing the consistency of our build system to the point that the Makefiles and the relevant build scripts have been introduced, with the latest changes being that we’ve finally introduced the <a href="https://github.com/Aptivi/tools" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">tools</a> submodule. This repository allows you to give your projects a build system powered by both the Batch scripts for Windows and the Bash scripts for Unix systems.</p><p>This repository is still not finished, yet, as we are trying to address remaining improvements to be put in place and to introduce a more extensive (and hopefully clear) documentation for using this submodule across many projects. Many Aptivi projects will use it to improve their build system and to save time writing long commands.</p><p>Using a single <code>make</code> command provided by an extensible standard Makefile template file (can be copied to each project individually) that will debut this August, we’ll be able to make this build system available to the public for every external project to use. For .NET projects, this Makefile will not interfere with the standard Visual Studio build process. As a reminder, Makefiles are not only for native projects written in C, but are also for all projects under all programming languages, even .NET and Node.js!</p><p>This build system is currently under development, but we are excited to announce that the final release of this build system will be released in the first half of August.</p><p><span></span></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/bassboom/" target="_blank">#bassboom</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/build/" target="_blank">#build</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/build-system/" target="_blank">#BuildSystem</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/makefile/" target="_blank">#Makefile</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/news/" target="_blank">#news</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/nitrocid/" target="_blank">#nitrocid</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/project/" target="_blank">#Project</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/tech/" target="_blank">#Tech</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/technology/" target="_blank">#Technology</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/terminaux/" target="_blank">#terminaux</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/update/" target="_blank">#update</a></p>

C.<p>Yes, you take your chances - there's the occasional outright scam, or so-so quality parts (like the ones that inspired me to write this), but you go into it with your eyes open. You take a chance because it's dirt cheap.</p><p>And 90% of the time, the parts are just fine.</p><p>For anything important, or safety-related, or mains-connected, or anything I build for other than personal use, I won't use yum-cha parts like this. For those, I order good name-brand parts from a reputable supplier (Newark/Element14/RS, DigiKey, etc).</p><p>But for hobbyists just having fun, messing around? AliExpress and friends are an absolute godsend. You can now get into hobby electronics for practically nothing, and build stuff and see if you like it.</p><p>There's a place for quality parts, and a place for cheap parts. Knowing which is which isn't hard.</p><p>Three cheers for cheap components!</p><p>2/2</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/build" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>build</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/maker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maker</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/circuit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>circuit</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/student" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>student</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/money" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>money</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/savings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>savings</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/cheap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cheap</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigiKey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DigiKey</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/RS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RS</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Newark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Newark</span></a></p>
