How do I configure Gulp plugins for my project?

To configure Gulp plugins, first, ensure you have Gulp installed. Then, you can install the plugins you need using npm.

What are some essential Gulp plugins I should consider?

Some essential Gulp plugins include gulp-sass for Sass compilation, gulp-uglify for minifying JavaScript, and gulp-imagemin for image optimization.

Can you show me a sample Gulpfile.js with these plugins?

Sure! Here's a simple Gulpfile.js:

const gulp = require('gulp');
const sass = require('gulp-sass')(require('sass'));
const uglify = require('gulp-uglify');
const imagemin = require('gulp-imagemin');

gulp.task('styles', function() {
    return gulp.src('src/scss/**/*.scss')
        .pipe(sass())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/css'));
});

gulp.task('scripts', function() {
    return gulp.src('src/js/**/*.js')
        .pipe(uglify())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/js'));
});

gulp.task('images', function() {
    return gulp.src('src/images/*')
        .pipe(imagemin())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/images'));
});

gulp.task('default', gulp.series('styles', 'scripts', 'images'));

How do I run the Gulp tasks after setting it up?

You can run the Gulp tasks by navigating to your project directory in the terminal and typing gulp to execute the default task.
