gulp is a streaming build system that automates slow, repetitive and time-consuming tasks in your development workflow. It is simple and easy to use with only a minimal API surface, but powerful enough to compose efficient build pipelines.
gulp is flexible and composable, and is also platform-agnostic, which means you can use it with PHP, .NET, Java and many other platforms. It’s got a strong ecosystem of npm modules and over 3000 curated, community-built plugins, so you can achieve exactly what you want.
