A makefile is essentially a script that is used by the make utility to build your executable. In other words, they provide the means by which compilation can be automated, reducing typically complex compiler and linker commands to a relatively simple make command. The makefile is just a plain-text file that contains one or more targets along with their dependencies and/or command lines. For additional help, consult the make utility documentation.
