no, a makefile with a docker build task acts as a reference for how to build the image. that’s my point.

_any_ repo has clues about the toolchain encoded in the file types and extensions, but that’s not the same thing.

and yes, npm or yarn can define scripts which can have the same documentation benefits. but there’s lots of others too that are specifically for tasks. i really like https://taskfile.dev.

these files can communicate how to work in a project.
