I grew tired of writing makefiles and I couldn't find a single build system that aimed to be minimalist and had decent scripting support. Ninja does the former but doesn't implement the latter on its own by design so I wrote the complementary part.

I hacked this together in a few hours so it's not perfect but I can already build a project of mine with it and it works great.

Nice! I saw "Shogun" and thought of the restaurant, and then saw the rest and was like, "Oh. :P"

Does this qualify as a signature? 
The answer is "Sure."

Ha, that's really cool. That oughta speed up building things a lot :)
ceci n'est pas une signature

Well, the main point is to make it easier to write build scripts. Ninja is definitely faster than make though.
