Cheat sheet

Structure

# Comments are preceded by the hash symbol
.PHONY: target
target: dependencies
    command_1
    command_2
    ...
    command_n

Technical choices

snack_case vs kebab-case

I prefer to use the snack_case format for Makefile commands, as it's easier to select an entire command with a double-click (IDE, text editor, terminal, ...), unlike the kebab-case format.

.PHONY: my_target_a
my_target_a: dependencies

.PHONY: my-target-a
my-target-a: dependencies
