Before you get started • Download and install NodeJS · Available for all major operating systems • Install Gulp as a global utility Prerequisites $ npm install -g gulp
! ! ! gulp.task(‘scripts’, [‘lint’], function () { return gulp.src('js/*.js') .pipe(uglify()) .pipe(gulp.dest(‘dist’)); }); Optionally declare dependencies gulp.task(name, [dep], fn) Registers a task name with a function
! ! ! gulp.task(‘scripts’, [‘lint’], function () { return gulp.src('js/*.js') .pipe(uglify()) .pipe(gulp.dest(‘dist’)); }); Take a file system glob (set of files) and emit files that match gulp.src(glob)
! ! ! gulp.task(‘scripts’, [‘lint’], function () { return gulp.src('js/*.js') .pipe(uglify()) .pipe(gulp.dest(‘dist’)); }); Piped files are written to the file system gulp.dest(folder)

grunt vs grunt-cli ! “In a typical Grunt-based dev workflow, the CLI is installed once per system, while the lib is installed once per project.” ! “The relatively high proportion of CLI installs implies that many devs are using Continuous Integration, where both the CLI and core lib get installed every time.”
Install package dependencies $ npm install grunt-contrib-jshint grunt-contrib-cssmin —save-dev Install one or more tasks contrib tasks are officially maintained
How are they different? ! Based on files Configuration over code Independent tasks, strong I/O connection 3600 packages > 2 years old Widely used ! Based on streams Code over configuration Tasks run a sequence of methods. Less I/O 800 plugins > 1 year old Increasingly used
