I've used Grunt for most projects in the last year, and just tried Gulp for my newest. Gulp seems snappier overall to me for tasks that watch a source directory with coffeescript or sass files in it. Maybe it's grunt-watch vs gulp.watch(). I think Grunt touches the filesystem more than Gulp which could potentially be a bottleneck. The creator (IIRC) of Gulp made a slideshow[0] . Here's an example Gruntfile[1] generated with Yeoman and generator-angular. And a Gulpfile[2] which does fewer things (no production build yet).
