I used Grunt for a little while until I discovered Gulp. Thought I'd post another option if anyone is interested. Much easier to get up and going. Although it doesn't have as large a community of tools. I'm confident it will get there.

Both are great work horses.

Gulp needs a bunch of work IMO, too much emphasis on streams and not enough composability. Most of my tasks are gulp-esque through streams, and I use a lot of things from the gulp ecosystem, but gulp itself doesn't do a whole lot for me. For anyone using it I recommend lazypipe and runtasks, they've been indispensable in making my tasks work the way I want.
