Comment on Show HN: Fez, a file-based build tool for JavaScriptComments−ilaksh12yI don't understand how to use it. Can I just write this: *.less → %f.css *.css → %f.min.css *.min.css → dist.min.css in a file and then run the command "fez"? And if not, then why not? If that was how you used fez then I would strongly consider using it.If you are looking for a build tool, I strongly recommend you first consider a bash script.Or if you are still looking for a build tool, like you collect them or something, I made my own too (lol): https://github.com/ithkuil/bildMine uses yaml files like this: - coffee: files: src/*.coffee out: lib - uglify: files: public/js/*.js out: public/js/min.js−sintaxi12yThis is exactly how harp works. If you don't want to deal with configuration harp implicitly does what you just suggested. You can run it directly as a web server or compile your project to HTML/CSS/JS. It might be what you are looking for.
