https://github.com/adriancooney/Taskfile - my favourite for its simplicity. A shell alias and a shell script with a function for each "job". No need to learn yet another tool when you just want to run a few pre-defined commands from a project's root. I think, if you're going to complain about make, then maybe all you really need is a shell script.

You want to use $@ rather than $* so you don't have to do double-quoting on arguments that have spaces in them. That said, I'm gonna steal this. Also if you like clever composability tricks check out Taskfiles, I've adopted them all over in my own code.

I was amazed to discover Taskfile. Didn't realise it was a copy of Make.

I've been using GNU Make 4.2.1 from here: https://github.com/mbuilov/gnumake-windows - depends only on kernel32.dll. I assume the latest 4.3 build there is the same.
