Gulp Task Automation for Beginners 

I totally agree with you

Thanks, man

@@juliandavidvidalgonzalez4536 make that function async, it works for me

gulp.task('css', function () { return gulp.src('./css/*.css') // this line, write return .pipe(uglifycss({ "uglyComments": true })) just write : return

what's it..!! can you help me Thank You.

Oh, interesting. Yeah, I've tried parcel but webpack seems powerful and more understandable.

Depends on your use case. If you build a single page application with multiple routes and more complexity, then webpack will be the better option because of its code splitting features and modern feature set and it has a lot of community support and it has become the standard in the industry. On the other hand, if you are building something simpler like a website maybe and you are using for example SASS, gulp might be the better option here for such simple tasks as compiling SASS to CSS or optimizing images for production or maybe even transpiling ES6 to ES5 javascript so you can write more modern javascript (since you probably won't write that much JS for a simple project), but still transpile it to javascript used by more browsers. Don't get me wrong, gulp can be used for bigger applications, but it's just that webpack handles it a lot better and is more modern after all.

Thanks Rand0m TV for clear explanation, I get it :)

is npm as popular as webpack?

Are you serious ? npm is a popular package manager and webpack is a popular asset bundler.

Yes! Gulp 4.x requires this!

Use exports.default = gulp.series(server, watch); // server and watch must be functions not gulp.task things.

I get the same error! could you fix it?

@@anthonyinit thanks bro

@@sm.1860 welcome bro

@@anthonyinit how he just writes gulp in CMD and it knows which file to look for? Does it require to call it gulpfile.js? Also in your solution you've wrote callback what it does , why it's necessary?

I think it's cobalt2 by wesbos.

Wes Bos is the man.

:p damnit stuck for 30mins

@@PhilipDenys 2, ha ha

But It was a great introduction!

I think he teaches like this just because it's easier for the majority to understand

You probably are using gulp v4.X. If you want to follow the tutorial you may need to downgrade to gulp v3.9.1 by using npm i -D gulp@3.9.1. Hope it helps : )

@@MrVisheshsingh Thanks you're right I was just had to change a few things for it to work with 4 all sorted now :)
