1.bower introduction
Bower is a package management tool introduced by twitter. Based on the modular idea of nodejs, it distributes the functions into various modules and makes the relationship between modules and modules, and manages the relationship between modules through Bower.
Package management tools generally have the following functions:
Registration mechanism: each package needs to determine a unique ID to match correctly when searching and downloading, so the package management tool needs to maintain registration information and can rely on other platforms.
File storage: determine the location of the file, which can be found when downloading, of course, this address is accessible on the network.
Upload and download: this is the main function of the tool and can improve the convenience of using the package. For example, if you want to use jquery, you only need to install it. You don't have to look for downloads everywhere. Uploading is not necessary, depending on the location of the file, but it needs to be guaranteed by a certain mechanism.
Dependency analysis: this is also one of the main problems solved by package management tools. Since packages are connected, you need to deal with their dependencies when downloading. When downloading a package, you also need to download the dependent package.
