Cortex is a package manager for the web with a bunch of full-stack frontend solutions to make your websites better, including:

• Frontend package management with much better version control;
• Compatible backend solutions for JAVA and node.js (will open to public soon);
• Development environment for your entire workflow;
• CI solutions to support multiple testing environment simultaneously;
• Global registry service;
• CDN solutions.

With Cortex, we write web modules exactly the same as we do with node.js, with no Module/Wrappings, no AMD, etc.

Cortex is designed and maintained for large websites and collaborative development and is also convenient for small projects.

First, node is required (>= 0.10.0), then run the following command in your command line:

$ npm install -g cortex

The modular world is much like the nerve system. Neuron cells processes and transmits chemical signals to others as well as javascript modules interact with others by passing runtime objects.
