Detect Make in any GitHub repo

Make is one of the build tool technologies Stack Fingerprint recognises automatically when it scans a public repository.

How Make is detected

Stack Fingerprint reads the repo's full file tree in one GitHub API call and flags Make when it finds any of these:

  • Files or folders: Makefile, GNUmakefile, makefile

Make README badge

A static badge you can paste anywhere in Markdown:

Make badge

Markdown
![Make](https://img.shields.io/badge/Make-6D00CC?style=for-the-badge&logo=gnu&logoColor=white)

Or let the repo describe itself

Static badges go stale the moment you swap a dependency. A Stack Fingerprint card is generated from the repo, so Make (and everything around it) appears or disappears on its own:

README.md
[![Stack Fingerprint](https://stackfingerprint.vercel.app/api/card?repo=OWNER/REPO)](https://stackfingerprint.vercel.app/?repo=OWNER/REPO)

Replace OWNER/REPO with your repository, or open the builder to pick a theme and layout.
