# Summary

&SCons; offers a robust and feature-rich design for an SC-build tool. With a Build Engine based on the proven design of the &Cons; utility, it offers increased simplification of the user interface for unsophisticated users with the addition of the "do-the-right-thing" `env.Make` method, increased flexibility for sophisticated users with the addition of &Builder; and &Scanner; objects, a mechanism to allow tool-masters (and users) to share working construction environments, and embeddability to provide reliable dependency management in a variety of environments and interfaces.
