[Development-Progress] Comfortable development with grunt and coffee-script
-
Hey guys
I've written a gruntfile to be able to write my plugins with coffee-script and have live-reload for my theme(s)
Here you go: NodeBB Grunt Development
To enable live-reload you need to install my new plugin: nodebb-plugin-livereload
Code on, FDG

Version 0.4

grunt initcommand to copy and initialize a new plugin/theme from drafts.
This works basically by copying existing files and replace occurrences like@{id}and@{name}within those and their file-names.
Btw: is anybody except me using this awesome build-tool? :wink2: It should also speed up the progress of creating plugins/themes with basic js if you're to afraid of using a comfortable language
