Make: A VS Code extension for working with make

Many programming languages, such as C and Go, still rely upon Makefiles to handle builds. This extension provides features to ease working with Make in VS Code.

  • Run any Makefile target with ease. Just run CMD-SHIFT-P and type make. You will be prompted for a target.
  • Don't remember all your Makefile targets? Run CMD-SHIFT-P target and you will be prompted with a list.

Requirements
