Really? gulp build step dependencies look almost exactly like AMD dependencies.

Edit: my wife has also asked me to ask you "will it scale?"

I've never used (or even heard of) gulp or AMD (I'm guessing they're widely used outside of JS-only environments), but from your statement I infer that one must be implemented as a JS library, and one must be a DSL with JS-like syntax.

Are you implying that my parenthetical is invalid because the DSL has JS-like syntax? You must have missed where I said "no easier" and "perhaps more difficult". If the DSL's syntax is identical to that of the library's, then clearly the denotation of the library is no easier to understand than that of the DSL – they are identical.

Was your wife's question supposed to be funny?

They're used widely used in things with a front end.

No, they're both JS libraries. See Google.
