I love Just, but I love it because it's not a build system — I already have a build system, I just need a standard "entry point" to all my projects so each command a user could use to interact with the actual build system is in the same place for each project. I wouldn't build, say, a C project with Just and Just alone, where it tracks the dependencies between files and only rebuilds what's necessary.

So while it's replaced one use of Make for me, I can't rightly call it a Make replacement.

Would you build a C project with make? One might argue that C could do with a better build system like other languages have. I don't use C much, but I hear that these exist.
