Taskfile

Taskfile is a tool similar to Just or Make, but easier syntax and written in rust

What does taskfile look like?

A barebones way to build a simple C file would go like this:

CC = gcc

build {
    @default
    $CC main.c -o main
}

See docs/syntax.md for the full language reference

Installing

Linux

Run:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/brysonak/taskfile/refs/heads/main/install/install.sh | sh

Note: This will ask for permissions, as it copies the binary to /usr/bin

Windows

Download the tsk-setup.exe binary from the releases section and run it

Building

Before you build, make sure you have the following pre-requisites:

• git
• rust

Run these commands in order

git clone https://github.com/brysonak/taskfile.git

cd taskfile

cargo build --release
