 this is a resounding boon. However, the cluster module is still in experimental stage, therefore it should only be used after understanding its purpose and behavior. To use it, simply run `node cluster_app.js`. **Its use is entirely optional and `app.js` is not tied in any way to it**. As a reminder, if you plan to use `cluster_app.js` instead of `app.js`, be sure to indicate that in `Procfile` if you are deploying your app to Heroku.
 
+### What is this Rails 3.1-style asset pipeline that you mentioned in Features?
+This is how you typically define static files inside HTML, Jade or any template for that matter:
+```jade
+link(href='/css/styles.css', rel='stylesheet')
+script(src='/js/lib/jquery-2.1.0.min.js')
+script(src='/js/lib/bootstrap.min.js')
+script(src='/js/main.js')
+```
+Simple enough right? But wouldn't it be nice to have it just like that in development mode, but when you deploy
+to production, have it minified and concatenated automatically without any extra effort on you part?
+```jade
+link(href='/css/styles.css', rel='stylesheet')
+script(src='/js/application.js')
+```
+As soon as you start bringing in more JavaScript libraries, the benefits of concatenating and minifying
+JavaScript files will be even greater.
+Using connect-assets library it's as as simple as:
+```jade
+!= css('styles')      // expects public/css/styles.less
+!= js('application')  // expects public/js/application.js
+```
+
+The only thing you need to know is to define your JavaScript files inside `public/js/application.js` using this
+strange syntax convention borrowed from Rails. I know it's an extra thing to learn for someone who has never seen
+Rails asset pipeline, but in this case benefits outweigh the costs.
+
+```js
+//= require lib/jquery-2.1.0.min
+//= require lib/bootstrap.min
+//= require main
+```
+Using this approach, when in `development` mode, **connect-assets** will load each file individually,
+without minifying or concatenating. When you deploy your app, it will run in `production` mode, and so
+**connect-assets** will automatically serve a single concatenated + minified `application.js`.

-:exclamation: **Note:** Using the custom templates approach, you should understand that you cannot reuse any of the views I have created: layout, home page, api browser, login, signup, account management, contact. Those views were built using Bootstrap grid and styles. You will have to manually update the grid using a different syntax provided in the template. **Having said that, you can mix and match if you want to do so: Use Bootstrap for main app interface, and a custom template for a landing page.**
