gulp-pseudoconcat-js

Information

Package	gulp-pseudoconcat-js
Description	Transforms list of javascript files into <script> includes
Node Version	>= 0.10

gulp-pseudoconcat-js is substitute to gulp-concat for development. This plugin allows browser to use js files directly from src folder without copying to build directory. Because of that Gulp-pseudoconcat-js allows you to debug your javascripts in your IDE as usual.

Order of the files is not influenced, ouptut order is same as input order. So you can still use the plugin with gulp-angular-filesort and similar sorting plugins.

npm install --save-dev gulp-pseudoconcat-js
