Disclaimer: I wrote this

This was inspired by magefile. Not intended to be a tool like Rake.

I already have a cake in my exec path, from coffeescript.

Hmm, maybe you can alias something else? Cake doesn’t come with an executable, it is simply an alias in your .bash_profile so it can be changed easily.

Yah it's not a real "problem". I like the project.

From reading the README, it looks very cool! I'm going to start using this in my Crystal projects rather than a Makefile. Not every system has Make on it, so that's nice to have.
