Stylus is a CSS preprocessor that enables the definition of various helpers in the form of mixins and variables for configuration.

You should already know the awesome nib stylus extensions. You might even have some helpers yourself, that you want to be accessible in all your stylus files. Perhaps even included by default, saving your the trouble of writing

@import 'nib';
@import '../my/helpers';

In all your files. Dont worry, grunt-stylus has you covered.

At Mojn we needed a way to write a reduced version of our server-side environment as an angular module, as well as generate a shared color configuration in our stylus and script files.

I stumbled upon grunt-template while browsing through npmjs looking for interesting tasks. Grunt-template is a simple task designed to pass any data you provide into an underscore template file, and write the result to another file. That’s perfect! Now let’s write some templates and configure grunt-template.</section>
