Why?
When we started with Roger there was no Grunt/Gulp/whatever and with us being a Ruby shop we wrote Roger. Since its beginning it has evolved into quite a powerful tool.
Why would Roger be better than any other? It's not it just does some things differently.
- Ruby
- Code over configuration
- Based on little modules, simple to extend
- Streams & files
- 4 easy commands separate concerns
