Features

Patsy currently does this

1. Bake mustache template files ( no variable passing ) into JSON string written to a *.js file
2. Check js files with JSHint
3. Minify files
4. Concatinates minified files into one single file
5. Automagic documentation generation
6. Baking of LESS to CSS
7. Automated testing via Nodeunit ( support for Qunit aswell )
8. Proxy support

We want patsy to do this aswell in the future

• Staging environment ( to pick sets of routes (read: proxy/reverse proxy) to use in given environment )
• Image sprite generation with automated css generation to be discussed
• Proxy data mocking ( option to save/cache data results when resources are offline )
