What is Cake?
Cake (C# Make) is a cross-platform build automation system with a C# DSL for tasks such as compiling code, copying files and folders, running unit tests, compressing files and building NuGet packages.
Familiar
Cake is built on top of the Roslyn compiler which enables you to write your build scripts in C#.
Cross platform
Cake is available on Windows, Linux and macOS.
Reliable
Regardless if you're building on your own machine, or building on a CI system such as AppVeyor, TeamCity, TFS, VSTS or Jenkins, Cake is built to behave in the same way.
Batteries included
Cake supports the most common tools used during builds such as MSBuild, MSTest, xUnit, NUnit, NuGet, ILMerge, WiX and SignTool out of the box.
Open source
We believe in open source and so should you. The source code for Cake is hosted on GitHub and includes everything needed to build it yourself.
