I still haven't looked at JSPM/SystemJS thoroughly, but regarding your comment, I personally prefer the dependencies get resolved automatically. For example, we can have www.example.com/app-deps.json where app-deps.json contains something like this:
{ dependencies: [ { name: 'backbone', src: 'www.example.org/backbone.js', dependencies: [ { name: 'underscore', src: 'www.example.org/underscore.js' } ] }, { name: 'jquery-ui', src: 'www.example.org/jquery-ui.js', dependencies: [ { name: 'jquery', src: 'www.example.org/jquery.js' } ] } ] }; Then we can use a loader system to load the dependencies: Loader.load('www.example.com/app-deps.json'); Now this only works efficiently if we have a central repository similar to Maven, otherwise there will be a request hell for each app/page/site to download these dependencies. But if they all point to the same CDN/Repository or use IDs+MD5/SHA1 hashes rather than URLs (e.g. org.backbone:backbone:1.0), it will help the browser to avoid downloading the same version of the same library more than once just because one is fetched from foo.com/backbone-1.0.js and the other one from bar.com/backbone-2.0.js.
