Bower is dead, long live npm. And Yarn. And webpack.
Blog post from Snyk
Bower, once a popular package manager for front-end projects, has been deprecated by its creators and is no longer recommended due to its limitations and complexity. Its flat dependency graph, which was once an advantage, can now be achieved with newer tools like npm and Yarn. Additionally, Bower requires another package manager, npm, to run, making it redundant for those already using npm. The lack of automatic dependency installation, support for different versions of the same package, and the need for manual dependency management make Bower less desirable compared to modern alternatives. As a result, front-end developers are advised to migrate to newer tools like Yarn and webpack, which offer improved performance, security, and scalability.
