Bower

What is Bower

• Bower is a package management system for client-side programming on the World Wide Web.
• It depends onNode.js and npm.
• It works with git and GitHub repositories.

Because there's already a rich ecosystem for this kind of thing. NuGet is great for server side libraries (and some client-side) but there are so many more CSS and JS libs on npm and bower. MSBuild is great for server-side builds but can be overkill when building a client-side app.
