If the feature request is for a plugin or theme, specify it here.
zservices/make-server
If the feature solves a problem you have, specify it here.
The server makes builds quicker – when one switches to the terminal to run make, a tail (from 1 line) of already running make will be shown, or a cat of previous, already finished make run.
Describe the proposed feature.
The zmake command (aliased to make if $MSERV_SETUP_ALIAS is set) nicely interfaces with the background service – it'll run a custom target (e.g.: install) in foreground, with sync with the background make (which can be also customized to use specific options, via $MSERV_ARGS), so there are no drawbacks of running a background make.
The plugin is a service and nicely works with Zinit service'' support – only a single instance of the make-server command is automatically managed to be run.
Describe alternatives you've considered
There are no such low-complexity tools, except maybe for CI tools. One person reacted describing the make-server as a "tool with goals of CI".
