If Sass: Create unified build process for development about twentynineteen HOT 7 CLOSED

I vote for webpack. WordPress uses it, vue-cli uses it, and create-react-app uses it.

WordPress developers need to be exposed to modern tooling and learning what a webpack config looks like and how it works may serve them more in the future than Gulp.

WebPack is excellent for JavaScript-heavy projects that require dedicated JS management. That's not the case here. The smallest and easiset solution is the best. It might be as simple as npm scripts with no build tool. If a build tool is needed, Gulp makes more sense for this type of project because it just uses straight up JavaScript. WebPack introfuces an unnecessary level of complexity for something pretty straight forward. In my opinion.

If SCSS/Sass is the only build dependency I would really like to see it just run as a standard npm command vs. using Gulp.

Im fine with that. We should also wire in Stylelint to adhere to WordPress Coding Standards.

There's a PR in the Underscores repo, that should get updated, merged, then pulled into this repo....

I'm more for webpack, since it's already used in core to bundle JS files [ref]

@mor10 I assume this issue can be closed now that #169 got merged, correct?
