The gulp stuff is old and dusty, the dep tree has also old and vulnerable stuff in it now.
Also I don't like to constantly check if any dep update could have caused some breaking changes, which alas happens way too often for my taste in the JS ecosystem. And I am not a full time JS dev to spend my time on this.
Also just a lame excuse to build my own tooling in a language of my chosing.
What the toolchain needs to cover (not in that specific order):
HTML post processing
HTML clean up (tidy)
IMG tag post processing
add alt attribute
add lazy loading if unset
add dimensions
add LQIP/SQIP (background css)
convert to PICTURE tag (w/ webp source + png/jpeg img); leave GIFs alone for now
minimize HTML
note: skip the feeds first!
minimize JS
minimize CSS
image conversions/transformations:
optimize/minize source images (mostly PNGs, maybe JPEGs, not sure about GIFs)
create WEBPs; note: discard if file size would be bigger than source!
create LQIP/SQIP versions (make sure SVG is optimized as well)
create thumbnails (mostly for hero images)
These are the basic steps, and most of them come from some JS tools.
If full rewrites are not possible, check alternative tools:
