About xPack GNU bison

The project

The xPack GNU bison project is part of the xPack Reproducible Build Framework and is hosted on GitHub as xpack-dev-tools/bison-xpack, part of the xPack Binary Development Tools.

This project currently serves as a supplementary tool for building the main xPack Development Tools. Since these tools are exclusively built on macOS and GNU/Linux, to reduce maintenance efforts, Windows binaries are not currently provided. However, the project is versatile and can be utilised in any builds; if necessary, Windows binaries can be added in future releases.

The project history

The xPack GNU bison history is presented on a separate History page.

The web site

In September 2024, the website content was added to the website folder, as an instance of the Docusaurus template. Additionally, a GitHub Action was added to automatically publish the site upon any pushes to the website Git branch.
