grunt watch task block the command line

Question

I\'m new to grunt, still learning, so I came up to a very strange problem. When I run \"watch\" task, my command line becomes blocked, so basically I cant do anythi

Answer 1

For Windows use

start grunt

This will bring a CMD window that will "watch" in the background and leave the git-bash or cmd window you were working in the same as you left it.

In other words, this will run the task in a separate cmd window for you.

Just wanted to let people know this worked per the comments.
