I was very frustrated when I tried to move to gulp+sass+babel+uglifier tool chain, It took me an afternoon to set everything up before I can write any actual code.
The whole thing looks like to be designed toward make big and long-term maintained website, not toward helping you to hack up throw away site quickly.
Stuff like gulp, after I installed it globally, I still have to install it per project, which makes little sense to me.
It used to be just "compass init; compass watch", and start write stuff, uglify JS before deploy, then done.
I still hates JS, I don't get why a language once hated by everyone, now is sexy again.
PHP in contrast, have improved a lot since 5.3, and it actually quite fun to write these days.
