> Grunt can do lots of things for us, and I think we would benefit quite a bit 
> if we were to switch to it.
> A handful of things it could do for us:
> 1. Providing a layer of abstraction between the user's machine and the 
> Vagrant box. This would let us run Grunt commands to perform actions on the 
> Vagrantbox, like running cargo to get the webserver running.
> 2. If separating the Java backend from the frontend is a goal we're pursuing, 
> then Grunt is a great first step toward reaching that goal. From what I've 
> gathered Maven is currently used to build the files, set up a watch 
> environment, and run tests. Grunt can do this for us without a dependency on 
> Java.
> 3. I've been told Maven is slow at the build process. We might see a speed 
> bump by switching to Grunt.
> [~mfranklin] and [~geerzo] agreed that this is an idea they'd like to see 
> implemented.
