I don't really agree with the divide as stated here - using Browserify does not imply a need for Grunt/Gulp/new build tool of the week. I would say that npm scripts + Browserify is enough for a surprising number of cases.

If what you really need is "type a couple short words on the command line and have a thing happen", npm can handle that without bringing in something heavyweight like Grunt or Gulp.

Even more - such job can be perfectly handled by a Makefile.
