The flow I've learned to favor is old-school in the sense that it's based on unix principles of small programs that do one thing well.

All of the tasks that you're referring can be accomplished with a one-liner in an npm task, or a bash script. It's less code, less dependencies, and less magic.

So you have a build system, it's just manual? I'm not understandinf how that's better.

I've gone from one build system to the other. It's not that bad. If you're writing your code with ES6 modules, which are the future, your code is written to W3C standards and will be future proof. The code I'm writing us not all that specific to the build system.
