What plugins can modern front-end development for gulp do without?

Question

css

Hello. I want to know what plugins your gulpfile.js contains. What are you using, etc. Why did I have such a question? Because using https://github.com/nimaxru/cephei I had a problem of long compilation of jade files. I have a total of 39 jade files (including pages and parts for include). It takes about 50 s to compile. Waiting every time to see changes is not ok. Any solutions?

Answer 1

Any solutions?

50 milliseconds is not that much. The average person reacts to an event after about 200 milliseconds. So either you gave the wrong numbers, or I don’t know.
In general, you should read gulp's wiki (or its README) about incremental builds and solutions like gulp-cache and gulp-newer. Either keep all files in memory and reduce the number of disk reads, or compile only changed files. Well, it's good to combine these two approaches).

Answer 3

Try webpack, it has a more human approach to building a project, or use casters like gulp-cache, gulp-remember, etc

Answer 4

front-end can do without gulp. No need to bet that either just taking it on faith that everyone does it and I will too. From the beginning, start just picking the code, and then after 20 minutes you will have a desire to speed up something to automate, and what it will be, this will be your first necessary plugin.

Answer 6

It means that something is not set up correctly =)
In the last project, there are about 120 jade files, compilation is not instant, but while the browser is being switched, all changes are ready.

Look at ASUS K52JC, ASUS N53Jg, HP PAVILION g6-1155er, Lenovo B570 and others with similar specifications. In the games of 2008-2009, it will be quite possible to play at medium, and even at maximum (depending on optimization) settings. In modern at low settings, the fps will be about 10-30.
