• In my previous post we have learnt about JSPM configuration.
• In this post we will learn about the supported registry by JSPM.
• JSPM supports any no of registries.However at present it supports NPM and Github. Most of the NPM modules will work without any further configuration.
• A JSPM module can be installed using JSPM install moduleName command.
• For example AngularJS can be installed using JSPM install angular command.The following screenshot shows the terminal with AngularJS installation using JSPM.

• In the preceding screenshot we can observe that JSPM is downloading the AngularJS library from Github sand saving it to jspm_packages/github directory.The following screenshot shows the updated directory structure after AngularJS installation.

• On successful installation of AngularJS a development dependencies will be added to package.json file.The following code shows the content of package.json file.
