SBT VS Chai

NOTE: I won’t mention SBT and Leiningen here because, with all due respect, they are niche build tools. I also won’t discuss Kobalt for the same reason (besides, it’s no longer actively maintained).

If you have insights or comments about these tools, please feel free to share them in the comments 👇. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago
