Not really. It's yet another build system whose main aspiration is to eventually match cmake's capabilities but missing all the reasons that made cmake the de facto standard, such as the declarative straight to the point way of specifying targets.
And yet lots of people use xmake and other alternatives....
Define "lots".
Also, your weekend pet project is not the same as a corporation's cash cow.
Close to half of C++ developers in that survey regularly use something other than CMake and I've seen projects at Microsoft and Epic Games use xmake. Why are you being such a pecker?
