Description-en: Cross-platform build script generator
GYP (Generate Your Projects) is a tool to generate native Visual Studio,
Xcode, SCons and make build files from a description of a project in a
simple JSON-inspired format. Its syntax is a universal cross-platform
build representation that still allows sufficient per-platform flexibility
to accommodate irreconcilable differences.
