Having recipes just for Windows/Linux. Being able to write your recipes in another language. Not having to be in the directory where the Makefile resides. Being able to call a recipe after the current recipe with && syntax. Overall lower mental burden than make. make is very complex. just is very simple. If you know neither of the two, you'll get going much faster with just.
