One of the things that I miss a lot when programming in Go is being able to write build tasks in Go itself. The de facto build tool for Go is make. Make is simple, classic and gets the work done. But it falls when build tasks are becoming complex. Another drawback with make is that it’s completely isolated from the host language: there’s no way to import and make use of any Go code. Build tools like ant or maven also suffer for similar reasons.
