How does this tool compare to `make`

I'm curious what are the advantages of using this tool compared to using Makefiles?

You have no issue template for questions.

@curusarn Thanks for asking.

  • yes we don't have a template for questions (We will add in future if needed)

About how it is different than make?

First of all – make can solve the same problem Few parameters than 1build stand different than make

  1. Simplicity in writing - YAML vs make the strict format
  2. Before & After command flexibility
  3. Extensible (we can make things parameterized - has a huge scope on features in future)

On another hand - 1build does not support saving the result of the task yet as like make
