A handy command runner for project-specific tasks that replaces complex Makefiles with a clean, purpose-built syntax.

Just provides a streamlined way to organize and execute project commands without the legacy overhead of make. It features a cross-platform interpreter that handles variables, environment files, and recipes with ease. Developers use a justfile to define tasks like 'just build' or 'just test' using any shell (bash, powershell, or python). With over 18,000 stars on GitHub and support for Linux, macOS, and Windows, it has become the standard for modern task automation.

### [Juggle 10+ projects in parallel without getting overwhelmed](https://atlanta.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_chajEf1PUyg)

I am building what Claude described to be a Project Awareness System. As a developer I can now trust Claude to let me plan with it then have it write the code, but that leads to a lot of wait time. So I started working on multiple projects in parallel, each in a different tmux window so I don't end up having to wait. However, one project often begets often projects that it depends, so over time I found myself with over 15 parallel projects all in-progress. And with this I got lost in what to do next, and so did Claude. To address this I started building a web dashboard of all my current projects that gets its data from monitors running in hooks, on prompts and as a daemon. I call this software Endless. It is still very early and very much a work in progress.
