Nq – a simple Unix job queue system
It's offtopic, but man pages should really adopt a new format (e.g. markdown) instead of roff(1).
roff is a terrible way to write a document. Its format is ancient and not well documented. Its behavior is not consistent across different implementations. Worst of all, no proper i18n support.
There's a tool like roff2html, but again it's pretty sketchy in terms of reliability and i18n support. I wrote my own converter when I was translating OpenBSD manpages [1], but I hope more people recognize this issue.

Redo: A recursive, general-purpose build system
Not impressed by shell incantations. What would sell such a tool to me is a feature to replace those with new and more intuitive syntax.
Holding on to how things are done in the shell is not a thing to be proud of. I think a lot of us around here stopped counting the times we got tripped by globbing, forgetting or misplacing one special character in a ${} block, or quoting.
Let those monstrosities die already. Please.
There's this tool -- https://github.com/ejholmes/walk -- that is pretty good and I liked it but dropped it for the same reasons: it leaves the heavy lifting to you and it depends on your mastery in the black arts.
Now obviously I'm not managing huge projects but nowadays https://github.com/casey/just serves me just fine for everything I need.

Nq – a simple Unix job queue system
Check out walk[1]. It does exactly this. Lets you define a graph of dependencies in any language of your choice.
What are some alternatives?
Rack - A modular Ruby web server interface.
redo-c - An implementation of the redo build system in portable C with zero dependencies
nq - Unix command line queue utility
cache_box_rb
please - High-performance extensible build system for reproducible multi-language builds.
