Mage is a make/rake-like build tool using Go. You write plain-old go functions, and Mage automatically uses them as Makefile-like runnable targets. Mage has no dependencies outside the Go standard library, and builds with Go 1.7 and above (possibly even lower versions, but they’re not regularly tested). The asdf version manager is a tool for installing release binaries from Github. With asdf installed, the asdf plugin for mage can be used to install any released version of mage. If you create your Magefile or files within a directory named magefiles And there is no Magefile in your current directory, mage will default to the directory as the source for your targets while keeping the current directory as the working one. There are no plugins. You don’t need plugins. It’s just Go code. You can import whatever libraries you want. Every library in the go ecosystem is a mage plugin. Every tool you use with Go can be used with Magefiles.
