Welcome to Dependency Management with RequireJS How-to. Here, we will learn the concepts
of the Asynchronous Module Definition (AMD) specification and how using Require.js, an AMD
script loader built by James Burke, can improve the performance and maintainability of your web
application. We will specifically learn how to integrate Require.js with popular libraries, such as
jQuery, the jQueryUI Widget Factory, Backbone.js, Lodash.js, Jasmine, and more, into an AMD
workflow. We will also review popular Require.js plugins and learn how to incorporate them to
support common web development tasks, including dynamically rendering JavaScript templates,
optimizing JavaScript files (that is, concatenating and minifying), and more.
Applications of all sizes can benefit from using Require.js. A small application can squeeze
out every last kilobyte (KB) of performance using Require.js APIs for asynchronous loading
and dynamic asset loading. Intermediate- to large-sized applications can become more
maintainable by using the Require.js dependency management API to track file dependencies
and decouple large files into smaller modules.
