     <p>Builder has made significant progress for 3.24, with a number of major new features. It has enhanced 
support for a range of build systems, including Flatpak, CMake, Meson and Rust. This is thanks to a new <link 
href="https://blogs.gnome.org/chergert/2017/02/17/builders-build-pipeline/";>new build pipeline 
architecture</link>, which allows different build systems to be more easily supported.</p>
     <p>Additionally, it is now possible to install and update SDKs and toolchains directly from builder, 
either for Flatpak and Rust. Clicking a few buttons is all it takes to set up a development environment.</p>

     <p>Flatpak support has had a significant amount of polish since last release, making it far more 
reliable and thoroughly integrated. This means it is now possible to seamlessly clone and build many GNOME 
applications using Flatpak, all from within Builder. This avoids the need to manually build lots of 
dependencies with JHBuild, and makes it easy to get started.</p>
