bower: List local packages and possible updates.
$ bower list
try on your machine

The command "bower list" is used in Bower, a package manager for front-end web development. It allows you to view the list of installed packages in your project's Bower configuration.

When you run the "bower list" command, Bower searches for the bower.json file in your project directory. This file contains the list of dependencies and their versions. Bower then uses this information to display a tree-like structure, showing all the installed packages along with their respective versions and their dependencies.

The "bower list" command provides information about the installed packages and their dependencies, helping you keep track of the packages being used in your project. It can be useful when you want to check if specific packages are installed, verify the versions being used, or view the dependencies of a particular package.
