---------------------
-
-
-I love using `Makefile` for one-off **tasks** in projects.
-
-The problem with doing this is that you can't use familiar bash–isms when doing so, as **GNU Make** doesn't use the familiar **Bash** syntax, nor does it allow for simple ad–hoc use of arbitrary scripting languages (e.g. **Python**).
-
-This project seeks to bridge all of these worlds into a single entrypoint — ideal for cross–language repositories.
