Hello all, I was talking to James Wennmacher this morning about the possibility of including a gulpfile with uPortal for accelerated development. I've been using one personally (just in the parent folder) and it seems a bit selfish to keep that goodness to myself, plus I'm sure somebody out there could enhance/improve as we love to do. James thought it would be a good idea for me to run by uportal-dev and see if there's any interest.
Essentially, what I have mirrors what the `ant deploy` task would do, but only for non-compiled assets (js, json, jsp, xsl, images, etc.). It typically sees a file change and gets it copies over on the order of milliseconds which is a great deal better than the tens of seconds or minutes I've seen with ant. I tried to make it pretty generic inasmuch as it uses $TOMCAT_HOME instead of an absolute path, which from what I can tell seems to be the most important thing for the copying of those assets. Anyway, let me know what you think!
