* Move all the H5BP source files into the `src/` directory and remove all external components that can be fetch via `npm`, namely: the Apache Server Configs, jQuery, and Normalize.css. * Add `package.json`, and move to using `npm` for managing dependencies (for more information about `npm`, see: https://www.npmjs.org/doc/). * Add `gulp` based build script to allows us to automatically create the distribution files as well as an archive that can then be attached to the release - https://github.com/blog/1547-release-your-software (for more information about gulp, see: http://gulpjs.com/). * Add other miscellaneous files to help us in our development process: * `.editorconfig` - to define and maintain consistent coding styles http://editorconfig.org/ * `.jshintrc` - to specify JSHint configuration options http://www.jshint.com/docs/ * `.travis.yml` - to specify Travis CI configuration options http://docs.travis-ci.com/ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - These changes: * automate some of the tedious work (e.g.: updating the external components, updating some of the inline content such as version numbers, etc.) * will allow us to experiment more (e.g.: allow us to create different builds of H5BP, builds that can contain different components) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Ref h5bp/html5-boilerplate#1563 Close h5bp/html5-boilerplate#1563
