Brunch

Web applications made easy. Since 2011.

Fast front-end web app build tool with simple declarative config and seamless incremental compilation for rapid development.

Usage

Install Brunch with a simple node.js package manager command:

npm install -g brunch

Create a new Brunch project: brunch new [--skeleton url]
- skeleton specifies a skeleton from which your application will be initialized. The default skeleton (dead-simple) doesn't have any opinions about frameworks or libraries.
- brunch.io/skeletons contains over 50 boilerplate projects, which you can use to init your app from.
Develop with Brunch: brunch watch --server
- tells Brunch to watch your project and incrementally rebuild it when source files are changed. The optional server flag launches a simple web server with push state support.
Deploy with Brunch: brunch build --production
- builds a project for distribution. By default it enables minification.

See the CONTRIBUTING.md document for more info on how to file issues or get your head into the Brunch's internals.

To install edge version (from GitHub master branch): npm install -g brunch/brunch
To enable debug mode, simply pass -d flag to any command like that: brunch build -d
