"You still use bower instead of npm?" - this is a poor example, as bower is specifically geared towards frontend assets
2 comments

npm is pushing pretty heavily towards being the source for both backend and frontend js assets. a lot of interesting work happening on that front.
i seen trend where people prefer to use npm, write libraries, which could be used on both sides, and then use browserify to prepare it for usage in the browser. I am not saying it is good or bad, this is just another trend.
