Introducing Aspect

Introducing Aspect: the comprehensive build, test, and CI/CD platform designed for Bazel, delivering the ultimate end-to-end Bazel experience that developers love.

As developers ourselves, we understand the challenges of maintaining productivity as a project scales with more team members and lines of code. We love monorepos, but we don't love the drag they can introduce on developer satisfaction and efficiency. Bazel is a powerful solution, but it has a steep learning curve.
