## 项目历史与用法

xc is a docs-based task runner that defines runnable tasks in Markdown or org-mode files. Its documentation describes it as similar to Make or npm run, but designed to keep project scripts inline with human-readable documentation.

### 项目历史

The project was introduced publicly through Joe Davidson's writing and GitHub repository as a README task runner. GitHub release metadata shows published releases from v0.0.30 in October 2021 through v0.9.0 in January 2026.

Over time xc expanded from Markdown task blocks into a broader docs-as-interface tool. The current documentation lists task syntax features, inputs, dependencies, IDE support, GitHub Actions guidance, and org-mode support.

### 采用历史

xc belongs to the post-Makefile family of small task runners that try to make project automation discoverable. Its adoption signal is strongest in developer-tool packaging and documentation culture: the README advertises Go reference docs, Awesome Go mention, editor integrations, and badges for xc-compatible projects.

### 使用方式

Users create a task section in README.md, README.org, or another supported documentation file, then define tasks as headings with code blocks. Running `xc task-name` executes the documented command, while the same file remains readable for contributors who do not have xc installed.

The official docs show tasks for testing, linting, building, tagging, updating Nix flakes, and building documentation. That makes xc especially useful for small repositories that want one visible place for both contributor instructions and local automation.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

xc is package-nerd interesting because it collapses a task runner and contributor docs into one file. It trades the power of a dedicated DSL for the low-friction convention that many repositories already start with a README.

### 时间线

- 2021: GitHub release history shows v0.0.30 published in October.
- 2023: The project is discussed publicly as a self-documenting README task runner.
- 2026: v0.9.0 is published with changelog entries including org-mode parsing and documentation/community updates.

### Related projects

- The project compares itself to Make and npm run. In the broader task-runner niche it is related to markdown-oriented runners such as mask and to general task tools such as Task.
