I'm newb-ish when it comes to Grunt, and am curious if it's possible to run both servers on the same port together. I'm having some trouble with it already... the problem is probably in the Grunt file.
I'm using grunt-contrib-connect and grunt-express-server for the respective functions. Ideally, what happens is grunt server will spin up the connect server, livereload, and the express server.
My Grunt file is below. Thanks!!
