Brunch vs Just: What are the differences?
Developers describe Brunch as "Ultra-fast HTML5 build tool". Brunch is an assembler for HTML5 applications. It's agnostic to frameworks, libraries, programming, stylesheet & templating languages and backend technology. On the other hand, Just is detailed as "A library that organizes build tasks for your JS projects". It is a build task definition library. It stands on the shoulders of two excellent and well tested libraries: undertaker and yargs. It also provides what we call "stacks" to complete the workflow of building a repository.
Brunch and Just belong to "JS Build Tools / JS Task Runners" category of the tech stack.
Brunch and Just are both open source tools. It seems that Brunch with 6.59K GitHub stars and 463 forks on GitHub has more adoption than Just with 1.31K GitHub stars and 44 GitHub forks.
