Gulp Azure Storage

Overview

The Gulp Azure Storage plugin is a powerful tool designed to simplify the process of uploading and downloading files to and from Azure Blob Storage. By seamlessly integrating with Gulp, it allows developers to create efficient build processes that incorporate cloud storage operations, making file management easier and more automated in their workflows.

Using this plugin, users can easily pipe Gulp streams for uploading files or define source streams for downloading. It includes a command-line interface (CLI) to facilitate operations, ensuring that developers can manage their assets in Azure without hassle.
