Grunt ecosystem is huge and it's growing every day. With literally hundreds of plugins to choose from, you can use Grunt to automate just about anything with a minimum of effort. If someone hasn't already built what you need, authoring and publishing your own Grunt plugin to npm is a breeze

@thomasmeagher Gulp has replaced Grunt for me on new projects. Community is still growing, but like the streaming approach much better.

"Why use a task runner? In one word: automation. The less work you have to do when performing repetitive tasks like minification, compilation, unit testing, linting, etc, the easier your job becomes. After you've configured it, a task runner can do most of that mundane work for you—and your team—with basically zero effort."

I love Grunt, it has made my life as a developer much more productive. There are 3,453 Grunt plugins, so you probably won't have to write one for the task you are trying to automate: http://gruntjs.com/plugins.
