You're being specious here and you know it.
Sure it wouldn't take days to set up, but for someone who has never done it before, it will absolutely take more than 5-10 minutes to correctly set up and test node with grunt/gulp (and all the other tools you might need: less, sass, compass, uglify-js, bower, etc) to replace the various worklows that Codekit provides easily and painlessly.
Again I am not saying there's anything wrong with grunt/gulp, but as I said, "effort vs. result" is an important metric, and if a tool like Codekit gets me the same results faster and easier than spending time learning how to install and configure grunt/gulp and all the tools they automate, then that's a win for me.
To each their own though..
- jbeja 13y agoFirst of all, i don't know anything about my supposed speciusness (if that is not a word, then i just made it and you get it). But i would say that you are "effort vs result" matran is being a little over dramatic in this context. Setting up the workflow (grunt or gulp) would take minutes with a little "effort" from you hand, with the only cost being your time. Also we should take into account that not every "cool" people owns a MAC nor have the means to pay for the GUI tool that would like take time to get familiar with, you see what i did there didn't you?. "To each their own though..", i couldn't agree more. Cheers
