> not have `target("name", function (ctx) ... end)`.

It supports this syntax.

https://xmake.io/guide/project-configuration/syntax-descript...

  target("foo", function ()
      set_kind("binary")
      add_files("src/*.cpp")
      add_defines("FOO")
  end)

I think the creators did it a disservice to xmake when they tried to unluaize the syntax. You can also do:

    target("foo", {
      kind = "binary",
      files = { "src/*.cpp" },
      includedirs = { "src" },
      defines = { "FOO", "BAR=BAZ" },
    })

which suits Lua better. Unfortunately you cannot do

    target {
      name = "foo",
      kind = "binary",
      files = { "src/*.cpp" },
      includedirs = { "src" },
      defines = { "FOO", "BAR=BAZ" },
    }

which would be the lua-est lua of all.

I did not spot those in the docs. Thanks a ton. This will help my autoformatter not completely wreck my files.
