Make is an amazing tool! It gives you a lot of power with just a few new concepts to learn. However, I don’t see much value in using make as intended in the article. The author uses it as some sort of “shared bash history” for developers, where it is used to store the most relevant commands for a project. Make is good for keeping track of what changed in your environment and, when it does change, to do the least amount of work necessary to build your asset. For the problem that the author is trying to solve, I would recommend something like Ansible, which feels simple and its playbooks often serve as documentation.
