I have been given the task of consolidating JavaScript and CSS into separate files for our java servlet application that utilizes JQuery. We are looking to streamline our build process using Ant for integration purposes, in order to decrease caching issues and reduce the number of requests made to the servlet.
After researching a few tools available, I have compiled a list of options:
JAWR (http://jawr.java.net/)
Juicer (http://cjohansen.no/en/ruby/juicer_a_css_and_javascript_packaging_tool)
JSBuilder2 (http://www.sencha.com/products/jsbuilder/)
JSLint (http://code.google.com/p/jslint4java/) (JavaScript only)
Quilt (https://github.com/kitgoncharov/quilt) (JavaScript only)
Do you have any recommendations, warnings, or advice to offer? Are there other tools or frameworks that you believe would be more suitable for this task?
Thank you in advance!
