Cake is an imperative and task-based way of expressing builds. In my opinion, it truly provides its benefits when you have a complex build pipeline. The added value is that any C# developer can understand and contribute to the build process without needing to master bash or PowerShell scripting languages or figure out how to use declarative DSLs like GitHub Actions, AppVeyor, or GitLab CI

Makes sense. So far I've been able to do all that within the project file itself with tasks and property files.
