What problem does it solve?

A monolithic Makefile becomes hard to navigate, maintain, and reuse as projects grow. Splitting concerns into modular pieces reduces complexity, improves collaboration, and makes it easier to apply environment-specific configurations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Modular structure: split the Makefile into focused modules (config.mk, rules.mk, targets.mk) and a thin orchestrator.
  • Environment configurations: supports per-environment configs (dev/prod/staging) via separate include files.
  • Better collaboration: smaller files reduce merge conflicts and enable reuse across projects.

Quick Start

Refactor a large Makefile by splitting it into focused modules (config.mk, rules.mk, targets.mk) and update the main Makefile to include them.
