Hi there,

I'm releasing a small Node.js utility project, mekano. It just updates files, with a few extras. It grew from the frustration felt when writing Makefiles or Gruntfiles for small projects, when the needs are plain, boring: just take this bag of coffees/sasses, make them js/css, browserify, minify, that's it. The main fancy feats., compared to make(1), are super-simple semantics for wildcards, for what it's worth; watch out-of-the-box, tracking command-lines, making output dirs. It does minimal updates. It uses its own syntax, no JS, no "plugins". Commands are run by the shell.


It's supposed to work on Windows as well, but I did not test yet.

Hope it may be useful,
– Jean
