Yea, but how does that help me in my dev projects? The nice thing about Bower/NPM is that you can pull repos at specific versions or pull in new versions of a project. Adding a line to my build script to include a file at (say) `./vendor/hackcss/dist/hack.min.css` is a lot easier than having to run his Gulp compilation script. CURLing or including this public link isn't really an option :/

Then I didn't understand the complaint, as this does include a dist/ folder in the npm package (which is also what npmcdn uses), so you'd just npm install it as normal :)

[mikegioia]

Oh I see what you mean. I didn't know that NPM added a dist folder when you install it that way.

Yes, when you publish an NPM package it grabs anything not ignored by .npmignore or .gitignore, which can include css, a dist folder, etc., quite useful!

Would that not pollute the git history of the project with "junk" diffs of the compiled min.css file? I can see people not wanting to do that on principle.

But yeah, I would really like a way for the builds to be available in the way you describe without any git history issues.
