I recently looked at many task runners. I settled on my own personal task runner only because of familiarity. I would switch to either of these if I wasn't so heavily invested in my own tool.

[task](https://github.com/go-task/task https://github.com/go-task/task)
I'm not sure what Run does that the two above don't.
- chabad360 7y agoI personally find Run to be the easiest of the three to understand (it's self-documenting like a Dockerfile) and get started with, and I have exp with none of them.
- TekWizely 7y agoHi @mmgutz, Thanks for linking these other projects - I'm going to add a section in my README linking to other projects that people might find useful for their various use cases. Go-task feels like a build tool and not really a general task runner. Looks like Just brings a lot of similar features and I will definitely be looking into it deeper. However it still touts itself a build-tool at heart. Run is NOT trying to be a build tool - It wants to be a script/wrapper manager and so the feature set is trying to optimize for that. Thanks for the question - I hope that helps - Please let me know if you have any other questions or comments. BTW: Can you link to your "own personal task runner" ? I'd love to see it and others might find it useful, too.
