Usage

In your new project folder, initialize the project:

yo rigel

The build process is handled by grunt.

Grunt Tasks

The generator comes with 3 main grunt tasks:

grunt

The default task watches for changes in the src/ folder. It watches the LESS files, assemble pages & templates, Javascript and images. The files are then processed by their appropriate task and placed in their respective sub-folders. The end results are placed in the dev/ folder.

grunt build:dev

The build:dev task goes through every task except for cssmin and uglify. It compiles and processes every file that requires it. The end results are placed in the dev/ folder.

grunt build:dist

The build:dist task goes through every task. It compiles, processes and minifies every file that requires it. The end results are placed in the dist/ folder and potentially ready to be pushed to production.
