Lightning Talk – Bazel UI
summary
A CLI called BZL (pronounced bezel) provides a statically compiled Go binary with an embedded web server and commands like install, use (repository rule generator) and bzl open/serve to inspect Bazel workspaces. It renders rules with inputs as links, streams the Build Event Protocol so actions and command lines are visible, explores flag definitions and configs, can render build graphs, reports repository stats (example: 29 CC binaries), and is currently closed-source with an optional paid build server.
