Generator Ariane

About

Web projects do not meet all the same requirements and need a plethora of tools for their development. Furthermore, we all have preferences and workflow of our own or we want simply to discover other tools. So, with this generator, we offer the ability to deploy quickly and in a jiffy a development environment from the simplest to the most complete.

Special thanks to Lineess for our beautiful logo, the teams of HTML5 Boilerplate, Yeoman, Gulp, Grunt, Bower, Browsersync and to the creators of all the Node.js modules we use.

Features

A HMTL boilerplate (based on the critically acclaimed HTML5 Boilerplate)
CSS autoprefixing & minifying
Choose between Sass, Less or CSS for your stylesheets

Map compiled CSS to source stylesheets with source maps
Lint & uglify your scripts
Built-in preview server with Browsersync
Choose your task runner between Gulp and Grunt

libsass

You should know that all Ruby Sass' features are not implemented by libass. Check out this to find out which features are missing.

If your favorite feature is missing and you really need Ruby Sass, you can always switch to gulp-ruby-sass and update the styles task in gulpfile accordingly.
