My Grunt Email Workflow

This is a Email Workflow built with the GRUNT Taskrunner and inspired by leemunroe's repository grunt-email-workflow.

With this workflow you can automate some parts of your email workflow like testing your email on different email clients with Litmus

Getting Started with Grunt

1. Install the GRUNT CLI (command line interface), in order to install this you first need to install Node.js, if you don't have it installed yet. Go to their website and follow the steps. Run the following command. The -g flag will install the GRUNT CLI globally so you will only need to run this command once.

npm install -g grunt-cli

2. Create a new directory / folder in which you are going to work in.

3. Create a package.json file. You can do it manually or you can just run the following command:

Go to your directory / folder

cd /user/yourpath

npm init

name: (name-of-your-folder) 

Just type in a name

version: (1.0.0) 

Give it a version

description

Type in a description

entry point: (index.js)

Type in an entry point or leave it blank

test command: 

Type in a test command or leave it empty

git repository:

keywords:

author: 

Fill in the author or leave it empty

license: 

Give it a license or leave it empty

Is this ok? (yes) 

Type yes

And now you will see that a package.json has been created in your folder
