Genesis is a Grunt tool for easing the build of static websites, allowing you to code with Jade templates and Stylus.
If you haven't used Grunt before you should checkout the getting started guide.
Genesis also comes with a few extras, such as a local web server, Javascript minifying, and a wercker.yml for Amazon S3 deployment.
Dependency:
git clone git@github.com:synthmedia/genesis
cd genesis
npm install
grunt
The default Grunt task will compile the Jade, Stylus and Javascript in pretty mode, watch for file changes and run the local http server.
grunt build will compile the code in pretty mode, but will not run the server or watch the files for changes.
grunt server will just run the http server.
grunt deploy will minify the CSS, Jade and javascript.
