User-defined functions and methods
--
Meson does not currently support user-defined functions or methods. The addition of user-defined functions would make Meson Turing-complete. Avoiding this greatly simplifies the implementation. If because of this limitation you find yourself copying and pasting code a lot you may be able to use a [`foreach` loop instead](#foreach-statements).
Meson does not currently support user-defined functions or methods. The addition of user-defined functions would make Meson Turing-complete which would make it harder to reason about and more difficult to integrate with tools like IDEs. More details about this are [in the FAQ](FAQ.md#why-is-meson-not-just-a-python-module-so-i-could-code-my-build-setup-in-python).
