How do I run grunt from a different folder than my root project

by

You can set two parameters --base and --gruntfile

From grunt --help:

--base Specify an alternate base path. By default, all file paths are relative to the Gruntfile. (grunt.file.setBase) *

--gruntfile Specify an alternate Gruntfile. By default, grunt looks in the current or parent directories for the nearest Gruntfile.js or Gruntfile.coffee file.

So, you can execute:

grunt --base c\my_app --gruntfile c\my_app\GruntFile.js mytask
