A fast, reliable asset pipeline, supporting constant-time rebuilds. Like Sprockets, but with more modern architecture and not tied to Rails.
For the command line interface, see broccoli-cli.
For a sample app, see joliss/ember-app-kit#broccoli.
Be sure to npm link (symlink) the current master branch of Broccoli into
your node_modules, as releases are infrequent and usually out-of-date.
This is pre-alpha work-in-progress. It's not usable for building actual JavaScript applications yet.
Windows is not yet supported.
-
Reliable: No dodgy cache invalidation or left-over files. You should never have to
rm -rf tmpor restart the server. -
Fast: Rebuilding should be O(1) and take less than 200ms.
-
Universal: Not just for JavaScript, but also for CSS, HTML, images, and other types of assets.
-
Package manager integration: It should not matter whether files come from your local repository or are supplied by a package manager (like bower).
