# Welcome to Premake

Premake is a command line utility which reads a scripted definition of a software project, then uses it to perform build configuration tasks or generate project files for toolsets like Visual Studio, Xcode, and GNU Make. Premake's scripts are little [Lua](http://www.lua.org/) programs, so the sky's the limit!

```lua
workspace "MyWorkspace"
    configurations { "Debug", "Release" }

project "MyProject"
    kind "ConsoleApp"
    language "C++"
    files { "**.h", "**.cpp" }

    filter { "configurations:Debug" }
        defines { "DEBUG" }
        symbols "On"

    filter { "configurations:Release" }
        defines { "NDEBUG" }
        optimize "On"
```
