I’m...talking about using make for its intended purpose, which is selectively building artifacts whose dependencies have changed, e.g. compile executable A if source code files X Y or Z have changed and leave it alone if not. What exactly are you talking about? Are you upset that make isn't a cross-platform package management system? You don't know what alternative there is to Make and then in the next breath you say the only arguments for it are personal preference?

Oh excellent, then better (and more portable!) tools are available: http://pants.build http://pants.build https://ninja-build.org https://ninja-build.org https://buck.build https://buck.build and, if you hate yourself: https://bazel.build https://bazel.build > What exactly are you talking about? Are you upset that make isn't a cross-platform package management system? Ok, so you were serious with your claims of portability, that is concerning. The majority of times I've seen Make used it's primarily been as a task runner. For example: TAG=some-service SVC=website.com/$(TAG) BUILDER=golang:1.19-alpine export REVISION_ID?=unknown export BUILD_DATE?=unknown RUN=docker run --rm \ -v $(CURDIR):/opt/go/src/$(SVC) \ -w /opt/go/src/$(SVC) \ -e GO111MODULE=on build: ifeq ($(OS),Windows_NT) # Workaround on Windows for https://github.com/golang/dep/issues/1407 $(RUN) $(BUILDER) rm -rf vendor vendor.orig $(RUN) $(BUILDER) rm -rf vendor vendor.orig endif $(RUN) -e CGO_ENABLED=0 -e GOOS=linux $(BUILDER) \ go build -o service -ldflags "-s -X main.revisionID=$(REVISION_ID) -X main.buildDate=$(BUILD_DATE)" \ ./cmd/some-service/... # $(RUN) $(BUILDER) rhash --sha256 service -o service.sha256 docker build --tag="$(TAG):$(REVISION_ID)" --tag="$(TAG):latest" . run: docker-compose up serve: go run ./cmd/some-service/... dev: ulimit -n 1000 #increase the file watch limit, might required on MacOS reflex -s -r '\.go$$' make serve ^ the only thing this is "using" of Make is the name "Make" and it's so much worse to actually debug than a bash script, it's even got workarounds for various platforms inside of it.
