Gulp is still widely used for more general build-related tasks like moving files around but sometimes you have a more complex build pipeline where you need to invoke bundlers/babel/etc via Gulp.
To move file around I use CopyWebpackPlugin or whatever other CLI tool called from npm scripts.
The promises of gulp (streams) fell short pretty quickly and we were just left with verbose spaghetti code that was no better than just a bash script. I went into gulp head first and honestly I’m glad that Webpack can deal with most of what I did back then, especially when paired with other reasonable CLI tools.
