# Welcome to pkg_comp, the pkgsrc compiler!

[pkgsrc](http://pkgsrc.org) is a framework for building third-party

software on a multitude of platforms, including (but not limited to):

FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, and NetBSD.

**pkg_comp is a tool for building and maintaining a repository of binary

pkgsrc packages.** pkg_comp does this by building the packages in a clean

and self-contained environment, hiding all complexity behind a simple

command and configuration file.  pkg_comp makes it even possible to

automate the builds of packages from cron so that you always have an

up-to-date local repository.

pkg_comp orchestrates VCS tools such as CVS and Git to **fetch the initial

pkgsrc tree** and to keep it up to date; the **creation of a fresh

sandbox** to build packages in; the **pkgsrc bootstrapping process**; and

the **use of the pbulk infrastructure** to build the desired set of

packages in an optimal manner.

With pkg_comp, you can quickly and effortlessly get third-party software up

and running, and you can target both your own machine or other machines

with different configurations.  As you build the packages from source,

pkgsrc puts you in control by letting you tune the software to your needs.

pkg_comp is licensed under a **[liberal BSD 3-clause license](COPYING)**.
