GNU Make FOR MAC

GNU Make is the tool of choice for developers who want to generate binaries, executables, and other non-source files from a program's source.

This makes it possible for any users, regardless of their previous experience in building programs from source or their knowledge of the inner workings of the program, to build and install it in no time.

GNU Make also has the capability to recompile a program when some of its source files or dependencies have been updated, taking into account only the files that have been modified and not the entirety of the program's source. GNU Make comes with support for a multitude programming languages since the makefile will tell it which exact shell commands it needs to use in order to generate an executable for a particular program. It's also important to mention that the GNU Make tool can also be used to install or uninstall packages, besides building them from the source.
