To install Bower on Windows, you are required to install NPM (Node Package Manager) first. Using NPM, we can easily install the Bower front-end package manager. If you have installed NPM on windows, you can use the “npm install -g bower” command in the command prompt to install Bower on windows.
To get started, Bower works by fetching and installing packages from all over, taking care of hunting, finding, downloading, and saving the stuff you're looking for. Bower keeps track of these packages in a manifest file, bower.
