simple-grunt-starter v1.9.0

Welcome to simple grunt starter.

This is a Grunt starter kit / boilerplate with Bootstrap Bulma that I use for my own projects. If you have any requests or remarks please let me know 🙂

Features:

• Compiles SCSS / SASS to one style.css file.
• Also minifies that style.css to style.min.css. For use on your live websites.
• Automatically includes Bulma's initial variables sass that you can overwrite with your own variables.
• Add any SCSS file and it gets included automatically.
• Checks your JS files for errors.
• Combines JS files to one custom.js file.
• Minifies that Javascript file to a custom.min.js for your live websites.
• Add any Javascript file and it gets included automatically.
• Supports LiveReload.
• Minifies your html automatically.

Getting Started

Requirements:

• Node.js
• Grunt
• https://yarnpkg.com/ (optional)

For more information on Grunt, see the Getting Started guide.

If Node.js and Grunt are installed navigate to the destination folder using the Node.js command prompt.

For example:

cd C:\Development\GIT\simple-grunt-starter

Watching for file changes

To get started we will need to install the required packages specified in package.json. This is done by entering the following command in your Node.js command prompt:

yarn

or ( if you don't have Yarn )

npm install

Now that the required packages are installed run the following command to create the folders and copy the required fonts to the dist folder:

grunt init

Now to start making your changes run:

grunt

Every time you change a file the watch task will trigger and compile everything in the dist folder!

Building for production

Ready to go live? Run the following command to minify your files:

grunt build

Don't forget to change the paths in your html to the .min version or use index.min.html!
