error handling for preprocessors

when a preprocessor (e.g. Sass, LESS, CoffeeScript) fails, the respective bundle should be blanked or replaced with a value that highlights the error within the client (e.g. html { background: black; } body { visibility: hidden; }, alert("error");)

BrowserSync support

→ http://www.browsersync.io

var browserSync = require("browser-sync");

// ...

browserSync({ proxy: "localhost:3000", open: false });

// ...

gulp.….pipe(browserSync.reload({ stream: true, once: true }));

that last bit might require some sort of hook within existing tasks

Mocha support

using Mocha with CoffeeScript requires a somewhat complex command:

mocha --compilers coffee:coffee-script/register

that might be worth adding a task for - or at least an example to copy & paste from

use JSHint and jscs

cf. b60df01

source maps for preprocessors

CSS:

• Sass
• LESS

JavaScript:

• esnext
• CoffeeScript

tests

it might be nice to have tests for individual tasks - or something approximately similar, just as a basic confirmation that things work as expected

right now, all tasks are pretty much untested in their current form

default configuration for JSHint and jscs

via @rstrangh (I hope he'll elaborate on the details soonish)

jsDAV support

→ https://github.com/mikedeboer/jsDAV

WebDAV is useful for rapid prototyping, noBackend-style

not sure whether this is sufficiently generic though; might just be my own current obsession

JavaScript preprocessors

• esnext
• CoffeeScript
