3. JS: Concatenates & uglifies Vendor and Custom JS files.
4. Images: Minifies PNG, JPEG, GIF and SVG images.
5. Watches files for changes in CSS or JS

##Implementations

• Checkout a basic WordPress theme implementation with WPGulp called WPGulpTheme.
• More coming soon.

How?

###METHOD #1

• Clone this repo and build your WordPress project with it
• Configure the project paths in gulpfile.js (Line #23 t0 #38)
• Open the project folder in the terminal and type sudo npm install wait for the files to get downloaded. It will take about 2 minutes to add a node_modules folder inside your project.
• Once the download is complete type gulp and boom!

###METHOD #2

• Download gulpfile.js and pacakage.json file in the root of your WP project
• Configure the project paths in gulpfile.js (Line #23 t0 #38)
• Open the project folder in the terminal and type sudo npm install wait for the files to get downloaded. It will take about 2 minutes to add a node_modules folder inside your project.
• Once the download is complete type gulp and boom!

##Prerequisite & Gotchas

• Tested and built on Mac OS Yosemite.
• You must have Git and Node, NPM, Gulp installed globally.
• You should never commit node_modules folder, you should exclude it in .gitignore file.

Feature Branches

• Live browser reload with BrowserSync
• Images minification with Imagemin

##To do

• Add base files.
• Write a blog post about this.
• Add more branches with different implementation of plugins.
• Improve documentation with more links.
