Gulp.js: Web Project Workflows

This is the repository for the LinkedIn Learning course Gulp.js: Web Project Workflows. The full course is available from LinkedIn Learning.

Modern front-end development means more than just writing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Developing an efficient workflow will help you write better code and test and deploy your web applications easily and efficiently. Gulp.js make setting up compression, minification, preprocessing, and other common tasks as easy as writing a setup file. In this course, learn how to use gulp.js to build workflows that make managing the process of building websites a bit easier. Senior staff author Ray Villalobos demonstrates how to use gulp.js to automate common processes, including how to create serial workflows and process JavaScript with Babel.

Instructions

This repository has branches for each of the videos in the course. You can use the branch pop up menu in github to switch to a specific branch and take a look at the course at that stage, or you can add /tree/BRANCH_NAME to the URL to go to the branch you want to access.

Branches

The branches are structured to correspond to the videos in the course. The naming convention is CHAPTER#_MOVIE#. As an example, the branch named 02_03 corresponds to the second chapter and the third video in that chapter. Some branches will have a beginning and an end state. These are marked with the letters b for "beginning" and e for "end". The b branch contains the code as it is at the beginning of the movie. The e branch contains the code as it is at the end of the movie. The master branch holds the final state of the code when in the course.
