My take to avoid the pains of complex tooling is to use autotools. Basically have a Makefile that contains what I need to build. That will keep working. When it’s too hard to represent in a Makefile, it’s too complex to maintain casually.

And staying away from npm, maven, and so forth. It has to keep working without internet access, because anything online can move and that way break my setup.
