The build script

The build script is a tool that optimizes your code for production use on the web.

Why use it?

Faster page load times and happy end users :)

What it does

• Combines and minifies javascript (via Closure Compiler)
• Inlines stylesheets specified using @import in your CSS
• Combines and minifies CSS (using YUI Compressor)
• Optimizes JPGs and PNGs (with jpegtran & optipng)
• Basic to aggressive html minification (via htmlcompressor)
• Revises the file names of your assets so that you can use heavy caching (1 year expires).
• Updates your HTML to reference these new hyper-optimized CSS + JS files
• Updates your HTML to use the minified jQuery instead of the development version
• Remove unneeded references from HTML (like a root folder favicon)
• Runs your JavaScript through a code quality tool like JSLint or JSHint (optional)
• Runs your CSS through a code quality tool, CSSLint (optional)
• Cache-busting support for a module directory
• Optionally precompile LESS formatted CSS
• Optionally precompile SASS formatted CSS
• Optionally output JSDOC3 documentation
