No matter how much I try, I can't understand what brunch is trying to do or why it's necessary enough to even create.

That's simple: brunch is a project builder.
You put vendor styles / scripts in `vendor`, then you edit your `app` files. No matter what language you want to write, brunch will compile it on `brunch watch` or `brunch build`.
Of course you can make some sophisticated makefiles and connect sophisticated file watchers there (brunch fastly rebuilds project on every small change), but why do this when there's brunch which just works?
