Gulp 4 + Webpack 4 + Babel + BrowserSync + Font Awesome 5

All the tasks are done via Gulp. Webpack is just used for ES6 Import/Export as Gulp can't do it to my best of knowledge. Apart from ES6 Import/Export, Gulp was able to do all my other work that I wanted so I have mainly used Gulp. That being said, you can modify the webpack config to your preferences from webpack folder and use webpack specific plugins as you need.

For Live reloading, Browsersync has been used. For ES6 Transpilation, Babel has been used. For SourceMaps, Gulp & Webpack both have been used. For Icon Fonts, Font Awesome 5 has been used with Sass/CSS Workflow.

Setup

  • Install Node
  • Optionally, also install Yarn or use Npm that comes with Node pre-installed
  • Install Gulp globally through npm install -g gulp@next
  • Install Webpack globally through npm install -g webpack
  • Fork this project
  • Clone the forked project (Yours!)
  • cd to the cloned project
  • Install all packages with npm install or yarn install

Usage

  • Build the Project and Serve locally (for Production) - npm start or yarn start . The Production port is 8000 .
  • Build the Project and Serve locally (for Development) - npm run dev or yarn run dev . The Development port is 3000 .
  • Exporting the Project to zip file - npm run export or yarn run export

Important Note: Don't run these npm scripts simultaneously.

Appendix

  • Tooling - Gulpfile Lives in gulpfile.js and Webpack config files live within webpack folder.
  • Source Files - Lives in public/src folder
  • Compiled Files - Lives in public/dist folder. When you clone, you won't get them but as soon as you run those any of above usage tasks (start/build/export), the public/dist will be created.
  • Exported Project - The exported project is imported from public folder and gets exported as website.zip to project root

Performance (Lighthouse)

This is the result of performance tests (97%) within Lighthouse for Production Mode. It's Not excellent (yet!), but still quite good actually. BNjmY3I.png!web

For Development mode it's 96% respectively .
