1155654 - [Messages] Use bower to manage external dependencies

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::SMS, defect)

Description

[Oleg Zasypkin [:azasypkin]]

We can start using bower to manage at least three gaia web components dependencies:

* gaia-header;
* gaia-icons;
* gaia-theme.

It's prerequisite for new architecture improvements as both threads.js and little-browser.js are bower components.

Hey Julien,

What do you think about this change? Looks like it's not dangerous for current master.

Just a note, I see that Music app just got rid of "bower_components" in bug 1154025, but still I believe that having dependencies managed by Bower will be beneficial for our app, especially it would be required when we move to a separate repo (where we should not commit "bower_components" folder).

As we discussed recently, let's postpone this task for now.

Made title more generic since we may use Bower not only for gaia-components now. Still on hold.

Mass closing of Gaia::SMS bugs. End of an era :(
