[![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/marv.png)](http://badge.fury.io/rb/marv) ## How does it work? -Marv creates a neatly organized source folder with clean and simple scaffolding (base template files, SCSS files). The source folder is automatically compiled to your local WordPress install(s) as you save changes and work on your theme. When you are ready to distribute your theme Marv will build it to a folder of your choice or bundle the theme up into an easy to install zip package. +Marv creates a neatly organized source folder with clean and simple scaffolding (base template files, SCSS files). The source folder is automatically compiled to your Marv development server(s) or local WordPress install(s) as you save changes and work on your project. When you are ready to distribute your project Marv will build it to a folder of your choice or bundle the project up into an easy to install zip package. ## Why use Marv? -Marv accelerates development by giving you access to higher-level languages like Sass, LESS, and CoffeeScript. These languages are much quicker and cleaner to code, but still compile to normal CSS and JavaScript. Marv also makes it easy to quickly bootstrap into and a more modular development environment, while still compiling "by the book" WordPress theme code. +Marv accelerates development by giving you access to higher-level languages like Sass, LESS, and CoffeeScript.
