Web app generator Build Status Gitter

Yeoman generator that scaffolds out a front-end web app using gulp for the build process

Features

Please see our gulpfile for up to date information on what we support.

  • enable ES2015 features using Babel
  • CSS Autoprefixing
  • Built-in preview server with BrowserSync
  • Automagically compile Sass with libsass
  • Automagically lint your scripts
  • Map compiled CSS to source stylesheets with source maps
  • Awesome image optimization
  • Automagically wire-up dependencies installed with Bower

For more information on what this generator can do for you, take a look at the gulp plugins used in our package.json.

libsass

Keep in mind that libsass is feature-wise not fully compatible with Ruby Sass. Check out this curated list of incompatibilities to find out which features are missing.

If your favorite feature is missing and you really need Ruby Sass, you can always switch to gulp-ruby-sass and update the styles task in gulpfile accordingly.

Getting Started

  • Install: npm install --global yo gulp-cli bower generator-webapp
  • Run yo webapp to scaffold your webapp
  • Run gulp serve to preview and watch for changes
  • Run bower install --save <package> to install frontend dependencies
