Gulp Angular Filesort

Overview

Gulp-angular-filesort is a useful tool for developers working with AngularJS applications, ensuring that the application files are automatically sorted according to their module definitions and usage. This sorting is crucial for preventing the common "Uncaught Error: [$injector:modulerr]" that can arise from improperly ordered scripts. Although the tool serves a specific purpose, there's a strong recommendation to consider alternatives like Browserify or Webpack for newer applications.

This plugin integrates seamlessly with gulp-inject, allowing for efficient file injection into your AngularJS app. By correctly organizing files, gulp-angular-filesort helps streamline the development process, making file management simpler and more reliable.
