justfile

Generate idiomatic justfiles for any project. Replace Makefiles and ad-hoc shell scripts with a clean, discoverable command runner.

Why just over Make

• No .PHONY hacks — all recipes are commands, not file targets
• No tab-indentation gotchas — any whitespace works
• First-class parameters, dotenv loading, OS detection, and modules
• just --list gives instant discoverability with doc comments
• Shebang recipes let you write Python/Ruby/Node inline
