What are the advantages of this (or `grunt') over `make'? Being JavaScript-based makes it more accessible than `make' but also ties it to just one language. What am I missing?
- Glide 13y agoThe main argument I've seen to use something in the Node ecosystem over make is that it works on windows machines. With Microsoft building support for Node into IIS it's something to consider. Personally the thing I would consider is that I have javascript at my disposal rather than make. If you have the background to support make, more power to you. I do not have prior make file experience so it doesn't get me much.
