Yeah maybe, but usually if I’m using Make it’s because my use case is “I want users to be able to build stuff without having to install any more build tools”. The curse of network effects. That’s the only reason I’d ever use Bash too. Otherwise I’d switch to Nushell in a second.
I wish there were good alt-shells on Linux. Murex and Nushell are both still pretty nascent to actually use (not for portable scripts but just general day-to-day tasks) - and if it’s something you care about it’s annoying that Nushell is MIT-licensed instead of a free license, which kind of also precludes zsh.
I genuinely kind of miss working a job that required using Windows because PowerShell is genuinely nice to use for throwaway tasks and working in a shell to do things like parsing json, fetching data from a http server, whatever.
