I haven't seen anything that matches what gulp can do to make both browserify and babel have working sourcemaps.

It's a great combo. For a while though, Brunch did very similar things, sourcemaps et al, with very little configuration (which is still very clever when you need it).

With parched, the idea is very similar:

   npm install parched parched-tasks-webapp parched-babel

And you're good to go.
