Pake is a build-tool written in PHP, using PHP as a language for describing build-rules. There’s no need to use XML or some custom language: PHP knowledge is enough. Pake supports tasks with prerequisites. Pake can be bundled with your application as a single phar-archive (or even as a single php-file), end-users don’t need to install Pake on their systems.
