The same code base is used for a different range of computing systems, from supercomputers to very tiny devices.

• Much simpler makefiles without the glue code that are hard to read and maintain
• Reduce the burden of code dependency management from developers
• Easy and efficient way to manage all compilation and configuration options on top of platform capabilities
• Precise dependency tracking with strong support of parallelism
• Tasks are split up and run simultaneously on multiple processors with different input in order to obtain results faster.
• Build versioning in continuous delivery
• Readable and configurable log

• Easy to change/browse configuration
• Clear dependency between features and capabilities
• Help docs in Kconfig rather than a README
