• Defined coding styles using .editorconfig file
• Handlebars HTML templates with Panini replaced with:
  • Twig (Twig.js) template engine
  • Vue.js progressive JS framework
• Sass compilation and prefixing
• JavaScript module bundling with webpack
• Built-in BrowserSync server
• For production builds:
  • CSS compression
  • JavaScript compression
  • Image compression

To use this template, your computer needs:

• NodeJS (0.12 or greater)
• Git

To manually set up the template, first download it with Git:

git clone https://github.com/franklang/foundation-zurb-template
