Does it track file hashes or just timestamps? Critique 2: Better. Shows specific pain point (intellisense) and asks a technical question about caching (hashes vs timestamps). This looks like a solid middle ground between npm scripts and a full-blown CI system. I've always hated the tab syntax in GNU Make, so a typed alternative is appealing.
I don't think you understand what he's proposing here. This isn't really a replacement for Make at all. This is just using Deno to run random script files.
That are two things in the article: having a kind of make alternative to "save your command history" and basically avoiding repeating large commands and how they use TS to make shell scripts.
