In early 2021 the plugin I hand over the plugin to JetBrains, and it was bundled in CLion and Goland since then. I no longer work on or support the plugin.

Plugin is available for install via official repository. Source code is available on GitHub.

Plugin provides full support for GNU Makefile syntax including syntax highlighting, prerequisites and variables completion and resolution. There is also a quick-fix to create new rule from unresolved prerequisite. Individual rules can be folded for better overview.

It also supports executing Makefiles:

• via “run” gutter mark
• from Make tool window
• pressing Alt+Enter (⌥⏎ on macOS) and selecting target
• using Ctrl+Shift+F10 (⌃⇧R on macOS) on a target

Run configuration

Alternatively, a run configuration can be created for any Makefile and target, with options to set up working directory, add arguments and environments variables.

Tool window

There is a tool window, which gives a quick overview of all Makefiles in the project and their targets. Press Enter (or double-click) to run a target, F4 to navigate to the source.

Feedback and pull requests are always welcome!
