How to use Cycle.js without Browserify/Webpack?

Question

Bower: I couldn't find a Bower package for @Cycle/Core, @Cycle/DOM, do these libraries exist? I'm confused at why there is an NPM package in the first place since Cycle.js is front-end based (and NPM is specialized for back-end only).

ES5: Is it possible to use Cycle.js with Gulp/Typescript/ES5 (and not use Browserify/webpack)?

NPM is not for back-end only. See Frederik's link in his answer or Google it. Some developers suggest not using Bower at all. — RationalDev likes GoFundMonica, Apr 16 '16 at 07:04

npm is not specialized for back-end only. It is for everything.1

It is possible to use Cycle.js without browserify or webpack. The library comes with ES5 distribution files, found in the dist directory.

Yes, you can use Gulp, TypeScript and ES5 with Cycle.js.

Everything Frederik said, plus here is a standalone Cycle.js example on codepen. You can see the links to the JavaScript files being loaded by clicking on Settings, then JavaScript. Here they are for convenience:

https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/rxjs/4.0.7/rx.all.js https://rawgit.com/cyclejs/cycle-core/master/dist/cycle.js https://rawgit.com/cyclejs/cycle-dom/master/dist/cycle-dom.js

Full example is on codepen

Or you can try stealjs.

At runtime it downloads your dependencies.

I use npm to get the packages, gulp to move the packages to wwwroot. TypeScript to downcompile, and systemjs to load the modules. No webpack or bower required.
