Browserify is a tool to bundle Node.js-flavored CommonJS modules.

'use strict';

var someLibrary = {
  method: function() {}
};

module.exports = someLibrary;

'use strict';

var someLibrary = require('someLibrary');

// tyte!
someLibrary.method();

This is pretty awesome.

What do modules buy you?

• Well-encapsulated units of code
• No more global namespace pollution
• No more brittle, weakly-stated dependencies

Why Browserify?

• Super-simple syntax
• Easy bundling
• You can take advantage of npm (!)
• Tons of plugins
