as grunt was mentioned in this article: now is the worst time ever to start with grunt. the project is currently in flux between 0.3 and 0.4. doesnt sound so bad? these versions, and the plugins used by these versions, are not compatible with each other. the documenation of 0.4 is not yet done, most of the examples of in the internet use 0.3, the code examples of the gruntjs github plugin repos are already 0.4. most of the community written plugins are still 0.3 only. oh, last but not least, 0.4.0rc7( or was it rc5) breaks compability with the some of the plugins that worked with 0.4.0rc4.
said that grunt is great, but still a 0.X.something software. if you want a frustration free time, wait some more until everything settles down.
- WickyNilliams 14y agoWell 0.4 is kind of living on the bleeding edge unless I'm mistaken? The npm package for grunt is currently on 0.3.17. The official site also points to the stable 0.3 docs so that should also abate the confusion somewhat. Personally, I've just stuck with 0.3 (despite the constant temptation to check out the latest version!), it's got all the tasks I need for my workflow and it is otherwise flawless.
