-<p>2019-01-15</p>
-<p>Some designers might shy away from build tools when first starting out and I can understand the reasoning - task runners like <code>gulp</code> and <code>grunt</code> can seem daunting at first. So, I&#8217;ve decided to showcase my go-to setup for <code>gulp</code> and explain what the heck it does step-by-step. </p>
-<p>Here is the final <code>gulp.js</code> file in all it&#8217;s glory:</p>
-<pre><code>var gulp = require(&#39;gulp&#39;);
-var shell = require(&#39;gulp-shell&#39;);
-var sass = require(&#39;gulp-sass&#39;);
-
-&#47;* Build and watch Jekyll (change this task to whatever you need) *&#47;
-gulp.task(&#39;generate&#39;, shell.task(&#39;jekyll serve&#39;));
-
-&#47;* Compile SCSS files to CSS *&#47;
-gulp.task(&#39;styles&#39;, function () {
- return gulp.src(&#39;_includes&#47;assets&#47;sass&#47;styles.scss&#39;)
- .pipe(sass({
- outputStyle: &#39;compressed&#39;
- }).on(&#39;error&#39;, sass.logError))
- .pipe(gulp.dest(&#39;_includes&#47;assets&#47;css&#47;&#39;));
-});
-
-&#47;* Compile the assets *&#47;
-gulp.task(&#39;assets&#39;, gulp.parallel(
- &#39;styles&#39;
-));
-
-&#47;* Build *&#47;
-gulp.task(&#39;build&#39;, gulp.series(
- &#39;assets&#39;,
- &#39;generate&#39;
-));
-</code></pre>
-<p>Trust me, it&#8217;s not complicated at all.</p>
-<h2 id="grabbing-what-we-need">Grabbing what we need</h2>
-<p>For our basic build file we are going to need only three modules: <code>gulp</code>, <code>gulp-shell</code> and <code>gulp-sass</code>.</p>
-<pre><code>var gulp = require(&#39;gulp&#39;);
-var shell = require(&#39;gulp-shell&#39;);
-var sass = require(&#39;gulp-sass&#39;);
-</code></pre>
-<h4 id="gulp">gulp</h4>
-<p>This is the streaming build system, without it we can&#8217;t do anything else.</p>
-<h4 id="gulp-shell">gulp-shell</h4>
-<p>A gulp command line interface for us to interact with our terminal.</p>
-<h4 id="gulp-sass">gulp-sass</h4>
-<p>Required for gulp to compile Sass into vanilla CSS.</p>
-<h4 id="bonus-tasks">Bonus tasks</h4>
-<h2 id="generating-the-build">Generating the build</h2>
-<p>Our first step is to create the default task that will generate our build. In this example we are making the assumption that we&#8217;re building a Jekyll website (but you can place any build command here):</p>
-<pre><code>gulp.task(&#39;generate&#39;, shell.task(&#39;jekyll serve&#39;));
-</code></pre>
-<p>Don&#8217;t worry if this <code>generate</code> isn&#8217;t clear, we come back to that later.</p>
-<h2 id="processing-our-pre-processor">Processing our pre-processor</h2>
-<p>We will name this next task <code>styles</code> since that&#8217;s what it outputs - our styling. We start by telling gulp where our main <code>scss</code> directory is:</p>
-<pre><code>&#47;* Change this directory to match yours *&#47;
-return gulp.src(&#39;_includes&#47;assets&#47;sass&#47;styles.scss&#39;)
-</code></pre>
-<p>This next piece tells the plugin to compress our final compiled CSS, log any errors if there are issues with the build and then export it to our destination directory:</p>
-<pre><code>.pipe(sass({
- outputStyle: &#39;compressed&#39;
-}).on(&#39;error&#39;, sass.logError))
-
-&#47;* Change this to your destination directory *&#47;
-.pipe(gulp.dest(&#39;_includes&#47;assets&#47;css&#47;&#39;));
-</code></pre>
-<h2 id="building-our-assets">Building our assets</h2>
-<p>This step isn&#8217;t 100% needed, but I like to include it for when more assets need to be added (minifying JavaScript, compressing images, etc)</p>
-<pre><code>&#47;*
-Compile the assets
-*&#47;
-gulp.task(&#39;assets&#39;, gulp.parallel(
- &#39;styles&#39;
-));
-</code></pre>
-<h2 id="altogether-now">Altogether now!</h2>
-<p>Now we add a task that runs all other tasks in our gulp file (in this case it will run both <code>assets</code> and <code>generate</code>)</p>
-<pre><code>&#47;*
-Build
-*&#47;
-gulp.task(&#39;build&#39;, gulp.series(
- &#39;assets&#39;,
- &#39;generate&#39;
-));
-</code></pre>
-<p>And that&#8217;s it - we&#8217;re done! A very basic <code>gulp</code> build for compiling Sass.</p>
