gulp-jspm-react-coffee-starter

A hand-rolled pipeline for front end projects using gulp, jspm, and coffeescript.

Usage

Clone and Enter the Repo

git clone git@github.com:perspectivezoom/gulp-jspm-react-coffee-starter.git
cd gulp-jspm-starter

Install Dependencies

npm install
jspm install

Build and Start the Dev Server

gulp serve

Builds from src into dev and starts BrowserSync. Note: This project uses gulp 4. If you don't have gulp 4 globally installed, or have not aliased the gulp command to the local repo, you will need to use ./node_modules/.bin/gulp serve instead.

Generate a Production Build

gulp clean
gulp dev
gulp prod

Builds from dev into prod, minifying css, js, and images.

Acknowledgements

Large portions of this repo were more or less copied from:

• Glen Maddern's post and screencast, for explaining JSPM and how it might be better than Browserify as it need not pre-compile.
• Gulp Starter, for showing how to split tasks across files, and for most of the tasks.
• This post to get Gulp 4 working and take advantage of gulp.series and gulp.parallel
• This post to get coffeescript Gulp tasks working
• HTML5 Boilerplate
• normalize.css
