Rebar is a feature rich Erlang build tool that makes it easy to compile and test Erlang applications, port drivers/executables and releases.

• Where possible, rebar uses standard Erlang/OTP conventions for project structures, thus minimizing the amount of the build configuration work necessary
• Rebar provides versatile dependency management, enabling application writers to easily re-use common libraries from a variety of locations (git, hg, etc)
• Being a self-contained Erlang script (escript), rebar makes it easy to distribute or even embed it directly into a project.
