Moved

Now located at https://github.com/JeffPaine/beautiful_idiomatic_python.

Why it was moved

Github gists don't support Pull Requests or any notifications, which made it impossible for me to maintain this (surprisingly popular) gist with fixes, respond to comments and so on. In the interest of maintaining the quality of this resource for others, I've moved it to a proper repo. Cheers!

An example of using Make instead of Grunt for fast, simple and maintainable front-end asset compilation.
# A simple Makefile alternative to using Grunt for your static asset compilation
#
## Usage
#
# $ npm install
#
# And then you can run various commands:
#
# $ make # compile files that need compiling
# $ make clean all # remove target files and recompile from scratch
