- Install Node from nodejs.org
- Install Grunt CLI -
npm install -g grunt-cli - Install Sass globally -
sudo gem install sass --pre. Ruby v2 is needed. Update using rvm, brew (if you use a Mac) or from ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/ then install the packages below - Navigate (
cd) to your project directory and runnpm installwhich will install all Grunt's dependencies - Run
grunt watchorgrunt serve(if you want to create a simple local server) to watch for changes and compile Sass/Javascript
When using Grunt with Kickoff, source maps are created for both the Javascript and Sass. Javascript is compiled to the /js/dist and Sass is compiled to the '/css' folder.
Kickoff's .gitignore file ignores the /dist folder by default. You will want to uncomment this line if you are not compiling these on the server.
There is also a Yeoman generator for Kickoff, visit tmwagency.github.io/kickoff/docs/yeoman.html for more info.
