Generating a build process for building software in a target environment

A method comprising:

• receiving, by a processor and from a recommendation engine, a recommended software-stack for a target software item to be built in a target build environment;
• determining, by the processor and based on the recommended software-stack, a build process for building the target software item in the target build environment;
• and
• executing, by the processor, the build process to generate a software build of the target software item in the target build environment.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions that are executable by a processor for performing operations comprising:

• receiving, from a recommendation engine, a recommended software-stack for a target software item to be built in a target build environment;
• determining, based on the recommended software-stack, a build process for building the target software item in the target build environment;
• and
• executing the build process to generate a software build of the target software item in the target build environment.
