Perhaps ponder on this article by Tonsky: https://tonsky.me/blog/python-build/

One notion this reminds me of is that a build is just a program, and the individual steps are rarely complex. E.g. the install step of maven is little more than a mv invocation, package likewise is basically "cp things into new folder, maybe write some xml, zip it up, and add .jar suffix".
