- guerrilla 4y agoI can't defend Just but everyone on UNIX should know what a Makefile is. Make is a standard. Scripts are just a mess.
- paledot 4y agoI'm not sure `make` is any less of a mess, to be fair. Especially when you're trying to use `make` for general project automation rather than the standard set of build tasks.
- TuringTest 4y agoMost people with a programming or Unix sysadmin background know about Make and what it is for (i.e. compiling source code, plus building and installing system tools). Knowing that 'Just' is an alternative to Make for running project utility scripts, it may gain popularity and become as well known.
