Can somebody explain the benefit of using pipes? Will this provide better performance than Grunt?

From an api standpoint, this doesn't seem that much simpler.

Terser code, faster build times [1]. May make some non-build tasks harder.

short answer, yes.

This is obviously a short introduction to Gulp. The same setup using Grunt is at least 50+ lines of extra code. Plus when you start getting into full deployment you're going to be writing significant amount less code with Gulp which in the long run makes it more maintainable.
