Automate your repetitive build tasks and terminal commands with Sandcastle. Built in Go.

I'm a solo student developer - I'm open to contribution to build this into something that everyone can and will want to use.

It seems like you lose the ability to set env variables using this tool, is that right? I'm curious why you set out to build something like this vs using something like Makefiles. What deficiencies or shortcomings were you looking to solve with this tool?
