title: What is best practice for making a library like lodash globally available in Aurelia?
body: <p>I want to be able to use lodash ( _ ) in a convenient way, but am looking for the best 'Aurealia' way to do so. I can see a few options:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Use a downloaded copy or CDN and simply include a <code>&lt;script&gt;</code> tag
  reference in index.html</li>
  <li>Install via <code>npm</code> or <code>jspm</code> (which??) and
  then either:
  
  <ul>
  <li><code>import</code> it in every module, which seems tedious</li>
  <li>use one of Aurelia's <code>feature</code> or <code>plugin</code> or <code>globalResources</code> or <code>someother???</code> features to load it and make universally available.</li>
  </ul></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>The answer to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34327133/jspm-are-there-any-advantages-disadvantages-in-including-client-side-library-f">this question</a> seems to indicate in a generic way that using <code>import</code> is best, but I'm stumped as to how.</p>
