There is a scenario where there are two jquery plug-ins, one depends on 1.0 and the other depends on 1.1, then we know to download jquery 1.0 instead of 1.1. Otherwise there may be problems.
So if you use 10 jquery plug-ins, how do you manage them? At this time, the function of bower will appear, helping you manage dependencies.

Bower will be more automated. I think it is very convenient. One bower.json can handle all dependencies
Bower helps you manage more plug-in dependencies, not just a download tool.
It is a management tool, not a download tool.
