This is a brunch skeleton which provides the following tools:
- jQuery
- LoDash
- Backbone
- Marionette
After installing brunch, run the following command to create a new project in a directory named example:
brunch new example -s git://github.com/monokrome/brunch-with-grits.git
NOTE: You can replace the word example with whichever directory name you'd like to use for your project.
After the project has finished being created, you can initialize it like so:
cd example
npm install
If it all worked out, you should be able to build all libraries into the public/javascripts/vendor.js with the following command:
brunch build
You can also have brunch automatically minify the output with:
brunch build --production
If you prefer to leave a process constantly watching your code for changes, you can use the following command:
brunch watch
Having a static server hosting your public directory is sometimes useful for development. You can do this by running the following command:
brunch watch --server
This will run a local server on port 3333. Once it's running, you can visit your application at http://localhost:3333.
