How can I fix slow compile times in my project?

There are several strategies you can use to reduce compile times, such as optimizing your code, using precompiled headers, and reducing dependencies. What programming language are you using?

I'm using C++. Any specific tips for that?

For C++, consider using precompiled headers to speed up compilation. Also, try to minimize the use of templates and include only necessary headers.

What about build systems? Do they affect compile times?

Yes, the choice of build system can significantly impact compile times. Tools like CMake or Bazel can help manage dependencies more efficiently.

Are there any tools to analyze compile times?

Yes, tools like 'clang-tidy' and 'include-what-you-use' can help analyze and optimize your code for faster compile times.
