Interesting. I feel like I would have gone with Starlark over Lua, but I guess it's good to have options.

Does it support sandboxing?

Not yet, but I've hacked up most of the Linux sandboxing: https://github.com/256lights/zb/issues/29

I want to introduce Windows sandboxing, too, but I'm not as confident about how to do that: https://github.com/256lights/zb/issues/31

Oh and as for Starlark, I went into more detail over in this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41596426

You need bazel if you need starlark & sandboxing

Well yeah. Starlark and sandboxing are the best things about Bazel, but it could still definitely be improved. So I'm still curious about other build systems.

I think making a new build system without sandboxing (or at least a plan for it) would be pretty stupid.

Fortunately he is planning it.
