Can you explain the concept of streams in Gulp and how it enhances performance?
Gulp utilizes Node.js streams, which are collections of data that might not be available all at once and don’t have to fit in memory. This makes Gulp efficient as it doesn’t need to write temporary files/folders to disk between operations. Instead, it pipes these operations, passing the data from one operation into another as soon as it’s processed, reducing I/O overhead.
This stream-based approach enhances performance by enabling tasks to run concurrently without creating intermediary states. It allows for faster build times since multiple tasks can process files simultaneously instead of sequentially.
