Doing this has been a confusing mess as people just argue back and forth the best way to do it as well as people keep writing package after package after package to get JS into a laravel project. I have the following in my package.json file.

These are shogin up in my "node-modules" folder in my root directory of my laravel project. 

 {
  "private": true,
  "devDependencies": {
    "gulp": "^3.8.8"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "laravel-elixir": "^3.0.0",
    "bootstrap-sass": "^3.0.0",
    "jquery": "2.*",
    "angular":"1.4.6"
  }
}

I also have 

 @import "node_modules/bootstrap-sass/assets/stylesheets/bootstrap";

in my app.scss file to I think pull in bootstrap.

I'm just used to a non package managed environment. Or an environment without a framework like laravel. Any help appreciated. I've read about just using BOWER but that seems like yet another level when I could just use NPM here.

Yes you can use npm as long as the package is available. Then edit your gulp file found in the root folder to compile sass,less

Visit http://laravel.com/docs/5.1/elixir to get basics of compiling the various packages css or js. Then run gulp on command line and your good to go.
