Any simpler alternatives to this? #172

After hours upon hours of googling, LMD appears to be the only AMD library around that makes it possible to define modules non-intrusively, i.e. without modifying (possibly third-party) scripts that implement the modules.

Very unfortunately, I find this library's getting-started dependencies prohibitive. I want to just be able to write a dependency DB in JSON format by hand, and load modules by invoking simple API, without having to install CLI tools and learn their options, and without having to deal with that "npm" thing that is apparently necessary to even obtain the code.

Are there any alternatives around that also support non-intrusive module definition?

Unfortunately, lmd cli tool or Grunt-lmd task is the only way. LMD has not a RequireJS-style loader due to its architecture.
