Yeoman generator that scaffolds out a front-end web app using gulp for the build process

🚧 There is a pre-release version of this generator, you can install it by running npm install --global generator-webapp@next. Help us make it stable by reporting bugs! 🚧

Please see our gulpfile for up to date information on what we support.

• enable ES2015 features using Babel
• CSS Autoprefixing
• Built-in preview server with BrowserSync
• Automagically compile Sass with libsass
• Automagically lint your scripts
• Map compiled CSS to source stylesheets with source maps
• Awesome image optimization

For more information on what this generator can do for you, take a look at the gulp plugins used in our package.json.

Keep in mind that libsass is feature-wise not fully compatible with Ruby Sass. Check out this curated list of incompatibilities 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.
