dust-compiler

library0.3.9jsnpmunverified

A Dust.js template watcher/compiler that compiles .dust files into JavaScript templates and provides desktop notifications on OS X (Notification Center), Linux (notify-send), and Windows. Version 0.3.9 is the latest stable release; the package appears to be in maintenance mode with no recent updates. It differentiates by integrating with native OS notifications for compile errors, making it visible even when the terminal is hidden. It supports AMD output, bootstrap compilation, and custom template naming. The package is designed for Node.js >=0.10.21 and is typically installed globally via npm.
