I like using make even for basic task running. It’s usually installed where I’m working and is familiar. I don’t want to install rake or mage.

- arbie 8y agoMake gets a bad rap but I've seen it being used for susbtantially complex workflows. If you wrap your commands in something that can reattach to running processes and use dependencies correctly, it is hard to displace.
