I only did one Gulp project and read it was a drastic improvement over Grunt, which I didn't use.
But most of my projects were done with Webpack and NPM scripts.
- bavell 6y agoAs much as people bemoan the complexity of Webpack, it's far superior to the (IMO) spaghetti code of gulp that inevitably results. I'll choose Webpack and npm scripts every time.
- k__ 6y agoToday, I would probably choose something higher level than meddling around with Webpack directly.
- bavell 6y agoFor smaller projects I agree. For larger projects, it's worth spending an hour or two on a custom Webpack config tuned to the project's needs IMO. In most cases it doesn't even take nearly that long.
- hombre_fatal 6y agoCheck out https://parceljs.org/ https://parceljs.org/. It's how I start every project. I can always move to Webpack if I need more customization and complexity.
