## What it is
A gulp plugin that adds source map support to gulp build pipelines. It lets you initialize, load, and write inline or external source maps across streams of gulp plugins.

## Use cases
- generate source maps in a gulp build
- write inline source maps for minified javascript
- write external .map files with gulp
- load existing source maps in a gulp pipeline
- debug transpiled or bundled javascript with correct line numbers

## When to choose
- you use gulp 4 and need source maps across multiple transform plugins
- you want inline or external source map output from a gulp stream

## When to avoid
- you use webpack, rollup, or esbuild which handle source maps natively
- your build pipeline does not use gulp

## Facets

- maturity: stable
- function: build-tool, developer-tools
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
