Use Gulp instead of make about numbers.js HOT 3 CLOSED

What's the advantage? I don't mind switching, I'm just unfamiliar with the
features of either build system.

Here are a few advantages of using Gulp over Make.

• Write build automation scripts in javascript. Make uses a bash like syntax.
• Easier to learn. If you know node.js then picking up gulp shouldn't be a problem.
• More cross platform friendly.
• Specify dev build dependencies inside package.json for easier installation.
• Work with objects instead of executing terminal statements.
• Output flows through pipe()s. Manipulate streams like objects instead of files.
• Has large plugin selection. http://gulpjs.com/plugins/
• Run multiple build tasks concurrently.
