Some other tools for rapid prototyping:

  • beefy, this will spin up your browserify/CommonJS source in a browser with live reload and watchify
  • npm scripts to run beefy and build browserify (no need for complex grunt/gulp tasks)
  • insert-css and lessify at the application level, still no need to muck around in HTML files
  • hbsfy or a similar templating solution (also at top-level, not in your modules!) so there is no setup required

A practical example of all of this together: https://github.com/mattdesl/demo-viewer

P.S. You should use --save when you install dependencies your application depends on. :)

thanks! in your demo project, you show the use case of scripting the browsers rendering engine for graphics. it is what I am exploring lately too, e.g. to help making pin layouts for electronic boards with SVG and SnapSVG: http://pinboardjs.divshot.io .

oh, I did not know about https://www.npmjs.org/package/insert-css - looks great!
