Overview

If you're looking for a solution to manage and organize your Browserify source maps more effectively, grunt-exorcise is a worthy addition to your Grunt toolkit. This plugin streams the process of moving source maps to a separate file using Exorcist, ensuring that your application's performance isn't hindered by large inline source maps. It's an ideal fit for developers who want to streamline their build process while maintaining a clean structure.

This plugin specifically requires Grunt 0.4.x, which makes it essential for those who are already familiar with Grunt's configuration and usage. It’s straightforward to set up and offers a range of options that can be tailored to suit your project needs.
