hey folks. @busy-vase-39202 has suggested to put together a blog post from a Slack message I've posted regarding editing the

files programmatically using Bazel build tools. Comments are very welcome ๐Ÿ™‚ here's the first draft: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Y3fCbx_Dap5Qk5L2VRFI6pPat0ctGP92FyYRq5IY6RY/edit?usp=sharing

Looks great! Thanks for writing this up. One comment: it might be worth mentioning that although the semantics are similar, Pants BUILD files are typically much more succinct than Bazel's, because of dependency inference.
