Holy shit... Where did you say you got all that info from? Is this what that module needs?
I thought it's just a stand-alone pythonic-module doing everything... Guess I was a bit optimistic... What about coffeeCup? - is it just something like "edit the less file in static/less/file.less and have it recompiled as /static/css/file.css" Well, either that and/or sass/scss, as well as coffescript transpiling, with optional minification/zipping for the resaulting js/css, yeah, basically that. But if there is ANY need for node.js in this kind of solution, than forget it. There are already many pre-packaged npm's for node that do all that and then some (like yaomen). I guess we'll have to get used to the idea of running node locally at each dev-machine for development, and another in the server for CI stuff... Is web2py minifying css/js scripts by default? If so, in what circumstances? And since what version? --
