Hows it work on Windows? I use Windows, Mac, and Linux in pretty equal amounts so I need a build system that works on all 3.


Try ShellJS. It works on all three platforms, and has been battle-tested in the build systems of several Mozilla projects (PDF.js, Firefox OS, Popcorn.js, etc).

Sweet! I was just looking for a cross platform build tool but this seems like it can be useful in many other ways.


Haven't used it myself, but it is suppsoed to work, there are a number of Windows specific things on the FAQ - https://github.com/cowboy/grunt/blob/master/docs/faq.md


I run it in Windows via msysgit without issue (need nodejs and npm). It's pretty easy to get up and running quickly.


Grunt works great on all those platforms!
