fastlane suits developers and teams automating iOS or Android build, beta distribution and store-release workflows. Teams using Linux or Windows should account for partial rather than official platform support.
Rake suits Ruby users who want to describe task dependencies in code and run build or test tasks across Linux, macOS, and Windows. It may also fit workflows needing parallel tasks or artifact packaging.
