Given your situation, I'd say component, bower and browserify are all interesting and worth checking out. Bower really doesn't do much other than resolve dependencies, but that doesn't mean you won't find it useful. If you are really into the node.js ecosystem and your back-end is node.js, then browserify is worth checking out. If not, I'd opt for component.
