title: Compiling Coffeescript with Flask in Production
body: <p>I have a Flask app that I'm running in production.  Right now it has a big ugly js file that I'd like to break out and rewrite in something like Coffeescript.  I was considering something like <a href="http://flask-cake.readthedocs.org/en/latest/" rel="noreferrer">Flask-Cake</a> to simplify the CoffeeScript compilation.  However, I don't know how something like that would work for production.  I should probably have a script that compiles the coffeescript files before deploying, right?  I've never worked on a system with this particular layout -- uncompiled server-side but compiled client-side.  What's the standard procedure here?</p>
