> Since one of the biggest complaints about Ada is getting the toolchain [6], I hope this can solve a lot of problems for newcomers to the language.

It might be just me, but Alire isn't great, I tried it multiple times, it's great for getting complicated dependencies e.g Utilada, but I go for GPRBuild as it just avoids all the fuss when programming across Linux/macOS.

I might try a hard switch at one point as I didn't use Alire 2.0.0 that much, so maybe it's better now.
