### 7.1 Make and Automake projects

A project of ‘`ede-project`’ type creates a file called `Project.ede` in every project directory. This is used to track your configuration information. If you configure this project to be in ‘`Makefile`’ mode, then this project will autogenerate a `Makefile`. If you configure it in ‘`Automake`’ mode a `Makefile.am` file will be created. The automake bootstrapping routines will also import and maintain a configure.am script and a host of other files required by Automake.
