Coffee script compilation

Question

I\'m looking for simplest possible way to automatically recompile coffee scripts into JS.

Reading documentation but still having troubles to get exactly what I want.

Answer 1

I have found the command-line coffeescript compiler to be poorly suited for complex project structures.

If you and your build process are as needy as I am, check out Grunt - http://gruntjs.com/

It allows for highly complex build processes - for example, you might

1. concatenate coffee to new file(s)
2. compile
3. concatenate some additional JS
4. minify

Tasks can be strung together, and watched files/folders are highly customizable as well.
