## Grunt tasks

## Grunt tasks
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The importance of the third-party grunt tasks included in Filer's gruntfile's `grunt.initConfig()` will be explained here, with a focus on their use in Filer's custom build, test and release tasks. For details on the third-party tasks themselves, refer to their repos. For details on the grunt task running framework, see [here](LINKY)!L!L!L!L!L!L!L!L!
|
The six grunt tasks Filer provides for development are detailed here, including a description of the third party tasks that are used to complete the process in the order they are used. For details on the grunt task running framework, see [http://gruntjs.com/](http://gruntjs.com/).
