Makey — Centralize your Makefile Command Execution

Hey everyone 👋, I'm Vishal and I'm very excited to reveal Makey to you guys today. It's a one-stop solution that supercharges your makefiles and enhances your CI/CD experience. How did it start ? While working on projects I often had to create makefiles for different purposes such as build, test, deployment etc. Having makefile is great, but its execution never felt smooth. First you look for your makefile, then look for the command and finally copy-paste it along with make command in your terminal. It's a bit too much for a simple task. So I looked for solutions and found some plugins/extensions, but they all felt half-baked and sketchy. So I decided to build one myself. How it works ? Makey works by scanning all the makefiles in your workspace and the commands within, and provides you all that information and power to execute inside a dedicated view. It also tracks any changes made to the makefiles and keeps the view updated. Makey also provides you a CodeLens that allows inline command execution while exploring any makefile. How to use it ? Just open your workspace and find & execute commands from the Makey view in a single click or use inline code execution via CodeLens. Yeah, it's that simple. Not using makefiles yet ? Now is a great time to start - makefiletutorial.com Thank you for checking out my launch, please give the product a try and help spread the word. If you have any feedback or queries you can post them here or send them to hello@vishalroy.com, I'm all ears. Makey Makey ! Vishal Roy

congratulations on the launch of makey, vishal. it sounds like a neat way to streamline development workflows. i'm curious, how does makey handle projects with deeply nested or unusually structured makefiles? does it manage to maintain efficiency in such scenarios?
