Javascript build with Node and Grunt

Here’s a way to create your own Javascript build with Node and Grunt.

First you should install Node.js

brew install node

Then git clone your JS repo.

git clone git://github.com/<alias>/<repo-name>.git

Enter the directory and install the Node dependencies.

npm install

Make sure you have grunt installed by testing:

grunt -version

If not try installing it with -g option.

npm install grunt -g

Then, to get a complete and a minified version of your Javascript sources:

grunt

Your Javascript built version will be put in the dist/ subdirectory.
