== Operation ==
The gulp tasks are run from a [[command-line interface]] (CLI)<ref name="gulpjs/gulp"/> shell and require two files, <code>package.json</code>, which is used to list the various plugins for gulp, and <code>gulpfile.js</code> (or simply <code>gulpfile</code>), These, as per build tool convention, are often found in the root directory of the package's source code. The gulpfile contains most of the logic that gulp needs to run its build tasks. First, all the necessary modules are loaded and then tasks are defined in the gulpfile. All the necessary plugins specified in the gulpfile are listed in the devDependencies section of <code>package.json</code>.<ref name=":2">{{cite web|url=https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/install|title=install {{!}} npm Documentation|website=docs.npmjs.com|access-date=2016-09-22}}</ref> The default task runs by <code>$gulp</code>. Individual tasks can be defined by gulp.task and are run by <code>gulp <task> <othertask></code>.<ref name=":1">{{cite web|url=https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp/blob/master/docs/getting-started.md|title=gulpjs/gulp|website=GitHub|access-date=2016-09-23}}</ref> Complex tasks are defined by chaining the plugins with the help of <code>.pipe()</code> operator.<ref name=":3" />
