Assemble starter is my starting point for any of my static assemble sites.
You can find the project on Github.
I often use assemble when I am building themes. The reason being you can do quick templating (thanks to Handlebars), it compiles fast, requires no server, and I am using Grunt anyway.
Extra grunt tasks:
- grunt-contrib-watch – live reload and compiles on save
- grunt-sass – C lib SASS action
- grunt-contrib-concat – combine things
- grunt-autoprefixer – prefix that ugliness
Modernizr Checks:
- cssanimations
- csstransforms
- csstransforms3d
- svg
- touch
- shiv
- cssclasses
- teststyles
- testprop
- testallprops
- prefixes
- domprefixes
- css_filters
Other Libs:
Javascript Goodies:
- prefix() – detect the js/css prefixes for different browsers
- xhr() – function for no-jQuery AJAX
CSS Goodies:
- normalize.scss
