This build system doesn’t solve the same problems that configure does. It doesn’t do library discovery, toolchain selection, or any of that other stuff.
It can replace make, although it’s missing any way of really generalizing the build rules, so for software that’s supposed to be portable, you’d still need to generate the input files for fac with the specific commands to run.
