ppremake or makepanda?

Compiling or Editing the Panda Source

Hello,

Hopefully an easy question, for new development work (i.e. new features) is either of the two build systems preferred, or should one aim to support both?

Sorry if this is already documented somewhere, I did have a bit of a search through the forums and documentation but I didn’t find an answer.

Thanks in advance
Bobski

Welcome to the forums!

Both systems are currently in use, so when developing new features, both systems need to be modified.

Makepanda is useful in quickly creating a build, while ppremake is more useful for development, but harder to set up.
