Questions tagged [yeoman]

Yeoman is a command-line tool for frontend web development. As a "web application boilerplate," its main features include project scaffolding, a build process based in part on Grunt.js, and package management for updating project dependencies.

Yeoman Features

  1. Scaffolding: Automates project structure using HTML5 Boilerplate, jQuery, and Modernizr - and optionally Compass, Twitter Bootstrap, RequireJS, and Twitter Bootstrap plugins.
  2. Watch Process: Integrates LiveReload with a native fallback watch process for updating changes in the browser without refreshing.
  3. Linting: Runs JSHint on specified project files during its build process.
  4. Preview Server: Using the grunt server command starts a built-in HTTP server for monitoring project changes auto-compiling CoffeeScript/Compass files.
  5. Image Optimization: Integrates OptiPNG and JPEGTran into the build process.
  6. Build Process: In addition to the features already mentioned, grunt build concatenates, minifies, and generates an application cache manifest. The build process also incorporates the RequireJS r.js optimization script.
  7. Package Management: Update project dependencies such as third-party libraries and extensions from the command line using Bower.
  8. Testing: Supports generating test cases for Mocha or Jasmine and automatically building them as part of the build process via Karma.
