Party like it's 1999, write JavaScript like it's 2012
summary
Argues that AMD is the practical module system for browsers now and demonstrates using RequireJS to declare dependencies and load a todo app’s modules and text templates, then running the optimizer (Uglify) to concatenate and minify into a single production file. Notes that the full loader is about 8 KB but swapping to almond ~800 bytes slims the build. Shows templates inlined, dependency order preserved, and the app running after build, and stresses always optimizing before deployment.
