What is main-bower-files?
main-bower-files is a Node.js utility that automates the inclusion of Bower package main files into build processes. It solves the problem of manually tracking and specifying which files from Bower dependencies (like jQuery, Bootstrap, etc.) should be copied, concatenated, or processed during frontend builds. By reading bower.json files, it returns an array of file paths ready for use in tools like Gulp or Grunt.
Frontend developers and build engineers using Bower for dependency management and task runners like Gulp or Grunt for their build pipelines.
Developers choose main-bower-files because it eliminates manual file path maintenance, reduces configuration errors, and seamlessly integrates with popular build tools. Its override system and environment-aware file selection provide flexibility without sacrificing automation.
