The goals of the kBuild framework: - Similar behavior across all
supported platforms

- Flexibility, don't create unnecessary restrictions preventing
ad-hoc solutions

- Makefiles can be simple to write and maintain

- One configuration file for a subtree automatically included

- Target configuration templates as the primary mechanism for
makefile simplification

- Tools and SDKs for helping out the templates with flexibility

- Non-recursive makefile method by using sub-makefiles
