just is a really cool addition to cargo projects. I would have liked it if cargo had custom tasks like npm or gradle, but a make style runner with saner configuration is good as well.

Take a look at xtask. It essentially relies on the fact that you can add cargo aliases in local files in order to execute specific packages.

When I create a workspace that has some form of code generation I like to overwrite cargo gen to whatever is doing the generating.
