Yay. Another week to waste rebuilding all the builds and fixing all the continuous integration jobs.
Is anyone else thoroughly unexcited about all this playing in the sand? We're building products; why do we spend so much time and money on build tool churn?
I avoid build tools whenever possible (using built-in build commands and things like compass), but when I do need a build, I just use Rake. My toolchain stays the same so I can get shit done.
- kevincennis 13y agoI'm not sure anyone is seriously suggesting that you take an existing project that's already using Grunt and convert it to Gulp. But if there's a new build tool that I've heard good things about next time I start a new project, I think it's worth a bit of investigation to see whether or not it might serve my needs better than what I've been using.
