Browserify is awesome, and I look forward to reading this guide in detail, but I must say I'm disappointed about the "avoiding ../../../.." section. I've never seen a solution to this problem that wasn't a hack. The doc is correct that using NODE_PATH makes your app "tightly coupled to a runtime environment configuration", but what it fails to note is that the other two solutions offered are just as ugly. Checking code into a directory managed by npm is simply asinine, and putting symlinks in there is just as "coupled to the runtime environment configuration" as the NODE_PATH solution. What is really needed is a reasonable (and supported ) method of programmatically managing the node search path. Why the node community is so stubborn about this point is a mystery to me and it makes me wary of node in general, because who wants to be locked into an environment where such an obvious pain point is ignored due to stubbornness?
