+// This is your build script. You only need to "bootstrap" it once with `cc -o nob nob.c`
+// (you can call the executable whatever actually) or `cl nob.c` on MSVC. After that every
+// time you run the `nob` executable if it detects that you modifed nob.c it will rebuild
+// itself automatically thanks to NOB_GO_REBUILD_URSELF (see below)
+
+// nob.h is an stb-style library https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/master/docs/stb_howto.txt
+// What that means is that it's a single file that acts both like .c and .h files, but by default
+// when you include it, it acts only as .h. To make it include implementations of the functions
+// you must define NOB_IMPLEMENTATION macro. This is done to give you full control over where
+// the implementations go.
+#define NOB_IMPLEMENTATION
+
+// Always keep a copy of nob.h in your repo. One of my main pet peeves with build systems like CMake
+// and Autotools is that the codebases that use them naturally rot. That is if you do not actively update
+// your build scripts, they may not work with the latest version of the build tools. Here we basically
+// include the entirety of the source code of the tool along with the code base. It will never get
+// outdated (unless you got no standard compliant C compiler lying around, but at that point why are
+// you trying to build a C project?)
+//
+// (In these examples we actually symlinking nob.h, but this is to keep nob.h-s synced among all the
+// examples)
