6. Why Use Git Hooks?
Polish Up The Workflow
IDE
Takes care of the big things - file encoding, code
quality helps, syntax highlighting...
[GULP] TASKS
Manage building dist files, running checks and tests,
compiling css, concatenation...

9. Another Way (A Better Way?)
●
NodeJS -> Can interpret javascript files
●
Gulp -> Easily build tasks for any stage in
the git workflow, likely can reuse existing
tasks
●
No shell scripts!!
What if you could use the same
tools/language you’re already using?
