Module: Gruntfile

Gruntfile tasks. These tasks are intended to help you when modifying the template. If you are
just using the template, don't sweat this stuff. To use these tasks, you must install grunt, if you haven't already,
and install the dependencies. All of this requires node.js, of course.

Install grunt:

 npm install -g grunt-cli

Then in the directory where you found this file:

 npm install

And you are all set. See the individual tasks for details.
