The bower. json file is actually used to define a Bower package, so in effect you're creating your own package that contains all of the dependencies for your application.
Bower is a “package manager for the web.” Bower lets you install and restore client-side packages, including JavaScript and CSS libraries. For example, with Bower you can install CSS files, fonts, client frameworks, and JavaScript libraries from external sources.
NuGet provides the tools developers need for creating, publishing, and consuming packages. Most importantly, NuGet maintains a reference list of packages used in a project and the ability to restore and update those packages from that list.
npm is the command-line interface to the npm ecosystem. It is battle-tested, surprisingly flexible, and used by hundreds of thousands of JavaScript developers every day. On the other hand, NuGet is detailed as "The package manager for . NET".
