TypeScript's Successor is Waiting, and You'll Never Want to Turn Back
Under the hood, Rescript uses a build system called Ninja. Ninja is similar to Make, but cross-platform and more minimal/performant.
- Using Make – writing less Makefile

Ask HN: What outdated tech are you still using and are perfectly happy with?
Really? I thought most new projects were switching to ninja[^1] and have never used it.

Installer script for CMake, Ninja, and Meson
I thought I would share my custom installer script for the latest GitHub versions of CMake, Ninja, and Meson.

Building and Running Pidgin and Finch 3
Now that you have your build system all generated you can go ahead and build everything. By default Meson will use Ninja as the build tool. Ninja is similar to Make but much much faster. You can also generate additional build systems but that's outside of the scope of this post.

Is there any way to configure my project so I can work on it on both Windows and MacOS?
There are also some other tools like https://ninja-build.org/ that you might prefer using instead

Bitdefender blocked Explorer.exe and Ninja.exe has been quarantined
I got Ninja from https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja, latest release. I'm assuming this is a false positive?

Show HN: Xc – A Markdown Defined Task Runner
To the extent that posts like these evolve into discussing the merits of Make as a task runner, I would like to offer my tool for review:
* https://github.com/TekWizely/run
I built it to feel like make, but be better at managing tasks and wrappers.
If you are evaluating task runners and appreciate the simplicity of Make's syntax, I hope you'll give Run a try.

Just: A Command Runner
I invite you take a look at Run, a similar tool that I maintain:
* https://github.com/TekWizely/run
Support for including other Runfiles was recently introduced, with support for globbing and the ability to indicate if an error should be generated if no files are found.

DevOps Is Bullshit
Unrelated to this topic, I invite you take a look at my project which a tool purpose-built to be a better version of what your makefile became:
Run: Task runner that helps you easily manage and invoke small scripts and wrappers
https://github.com/TekWizely/run
Defining commands feels like make, but comes with a bunch of extras targeted at the needs of a task-runner.
I hope you'll check it out!

sd – a cozy nest for your scripts
This looks like an interesting way to manage scripts globally. I could even see it able to manage n-sub-commands deep (vs usual "command sub-command" - maybe it already does?) by just trying to resolve each argument as a dir until you find a script to execute.
If you're interested in ways to better-manage small scripts and wrappers more locally, please take a look at my project, Run:

The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Makefiles
For those looking for a powerful task runners that feel like a makefile, please take a look at Run:
https://github.com/TekWizely/run
It's better a managing and invoking tasks and generates help text from comments.
