=head1 NAME

Alien::Build::Manual::Alien - General alien author documentation

=head1 VERSION

version 2.80

=head1 SYNOPSIS

perldoc Alien::Build::Manual::Alien

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The goal of the L<Alien> namespace is to provide non-CPAN dependencies (so called "Alien" dependencies) for
CPAN modules. The history and intent of this idea is documented in the documentation-only L<Alien> module.
The C<Alien-Build> distribution provides a framework for building aliens. The intent is to fix bugs and
enhance the interface of a number of common tools so that all aliens may benefit. The distribution is broken
up into these parts:

=over 4

=item The Alien Installer (configure / build-time)

L<Alien::Build> and L<alienfile> are used to detect and install aliens. They are further documented in
L<Alien::Build::Manual::AlienAuthor>.

=item The Alien Runtime (runtime)

L<Alien::Base> is the base class for aliens in the C<Alien-Build> system. Its use by Alien consumers
is documented in L<Alien::Build::Manual::AlienUser>.

=item The Plugin system (configure / build-time)

Because many packages are implemented using different tools, the detection, build and install logic
for a particular L<Alien> can vary a lot.  As such, much of L<Alien::Build> is implemented as a
series of plugins that inherit from L<Alien::Build::Plugin>.  An overview of building your own
plugins is documented in L<Alien::Build::Manual::PluginAuthor>.
