# Gulp Tasks

Because the `gulpfile.js` was becoming enormous and because I hate huge files, this
directory contains all the gulp tasks splited by purposes. `gulpfiles.js` passes path
configuration to gulp tasks through `gulp.paths`.

## build.js

Contains the build tasks aiming to optimize all your project and create the dist folder
- **partials**: compile html partials in one javascript `templateCacheHtml.js`
- **html**: the big one with `useref`, `rev` and `uglify`.
- **images**: optimize images with imagemin.
- **fonts**: copy fonts from bower to dist
- **misc**: copy other files
- **clean**: delete temporary files
- **build**: html + images + fonts + misc
