  • GNU Make originated as a dependency-tracking build tool that automates the build process of source files and libraries. Although many modern languages provide built-in dependency management and build tools, a Makefile still finds its place in these projects. In these cases, Makefiles are used as a collection of aliases for actions like test, build, and lint. In this article, I will show you that there is a better option for these use-cases: task.
