An example of using Make instead of Grunt for fast, simple and maintainable front-end asset compilation.
# A simple Makefile alternative to using Grunt for your static asset compilation
#
## Usage

#
# $ make # compile files that need compiling
# $ make clean all # remove target files and recompile from scratch

Out of Office Template
I am currently out of the office on vacation until the <%= return_date %>.
I know I'm supposed to say that I'll have limited access to email and won't be
able to respond until I return, but that's not true. My iPhone will be with me
and I can respond if I need to. And I recognize that I'll probably need to
interrupt my vacation from time to time to deal with something urgent.
If you need urgent assistance you can *text me* at <%= mobile_phone %>.
Otherwise, I'll respond when I return...
