 ## The Build System
 
-The build system for Rust is complex. It covers bootstrapping the compiler,
-running tests, building documentation and more.
-
-If Makefiles are your thing, all the configuration lives in
-[the `mk` directory][mkdir] in the project root. Is can be hard to follow
-in places, as it uses some advanced Make features which make for some
-challenging reading. If you have questions on the build system internals, try
-asking in [`#rust-internals`][pound-rust-internals].
+Rust's build system allows you to bootstrap the compiler, run tests &
+benchmarks, generate documentation, install a fresh build of Rust, and more.
+It's your best friend when working on Rust, allowing you to compile & test
+your contributions before submission.
