Open your command-line tool and move to the folders containing the template files.

Type the pistachio command and specify the name of the output file and the file to compile:

$ pistachio --out=splash-tpl.js splash-tpl.html

Create a build file named, for instance, template-build.js, for the existing template to use when compressing the file with UglifyJS2, specifying the template name and the desired output filename:

({
    name: ‘splash-tpl',
    out: ‘splash-built.js'
})

Run the r.js Node module from the command-line tool:

$ r.js -o template-build.js

Open the file and check its syntax and size.
