make is very different.
there are many added values in cargo-make, such as built in watch, cross platform, ability to extend/load other makefiles, conditions on tasks, and a lot more.
There are additional big advantages for rust projects such as: integration with cargo/rustup to install dependencies, ability to choose nightly/beta/stable, predefined env vars to help you understand the rust env and so on...
