Mmake is a small Go program that wraps GNU make to add user-friendly features like automatic help output from Makefile comments and remote includes fetched over HTTP or GitHub shortcuts. It otherwise acts as a pass-through to standard make.
Use cases
- generate help output from makefile comments
- run make tasks with friendly help listing
- include shared makefiles from remote URLs
- use make as a task runner with better UX
- share common makefile targets across projects
- alias make to a modern wrapper
When to choose
- you use make as a task runner and want built-in help output
- you want to share makefile snippets across repos via remote includes
- you want a drop-in make wrapper that preserves standard behavior
When to avoid
- you need a full modern build system rather than a make wrapper
- you rely on features beyond help output and remote includes
- you need actively maintained software with a license and recent releases
