The h5bp build script now has three versions, the main one being the [ant-build-script][]. This project is the node version, and it uses Grunt as a build tool.

It is packaged as a grunt plugin and provides you a bunch of tasks and helpers to help improve the performance of your site/app in a production environment.

Description

This node/grunt-based build script tries to be as close as possible to the [ant-build-script][], a really great project you should check out.

It is still in early stage of development, but will get better, thanks to your feedback.

Quick start

Fancy one line install:

# see the gist: https://gist.github.com/2359881
$ curl https://raw.github.com/gist/2359881/install.sh | sh

Slightly less fancier

$ npm install https://github.com/h5bp/node-build-script/tarball/master -g
$ h5bp help
$ h5bp init

Developing locally

$ git clone git://github.com/h5bp/node-build-script.git
$ cd node-build-script
$ npm link
