Love modules? Weve got you covered with [lodash-amd](https://github.com/lodash/lodash-amd/tree/2.4.1), [lodash-node](https://www.npmjs.com/package/lodash-node), & [npm packages](https://www.npmjs.com/browse/keyword/lodash-modularized) per method.
## Dive in
Check out our [unit tests](https://lodash.com/tests), [benchmarks](https://lodash.com/benchmarks), [changelog](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/wiki/Changelog), [roadmap](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/wiki/Roadmap), as well as [community created podcasts, posts, & videos](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/wiki/Resources).
## Installation
In a browser:
```html
<script src="lodash.js"></script>
```
In an AMD loader:
```js
require(['lodash'], function(_) {/*…*/});
```
Using npm:
The [modern build](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/wiki/Build-Differences) of [Lo-Dash](https://lodash.com/) with packages for [Bower](http://bower.io/), [Component](http://component.github.io/), & [Volo](http://volojs.org/).
Generated using [lodash-cli](https://www.npmjs.com/package/lodash-cli):
```bash
$ {sudo -H} npm i -g npm
$ npm i --save lodash
$ {sudo -H} npm i -g lodash
$ npm ln lodash
$ lodash modern -o ./lodash.js
```
In Node.js:
## Module formats
```js
// the default modern build
var _ = require('lodash');
Lo-Dash is also available in a variety of other builds & module formats.
// or the compat build
var _ = require('lodash-compat');
// or specific methods
var clone = require('lodash/lang/clone');
var keysIn = require('lodash-compat/object/keysIn');
var transform = require('lodash.transform');
```
**Note:**
Dont assign values to the [special variable](http://nodejs.org/api/repl.html#repl_repl_features) `_` when in the REPL.
Install [n_](https://www.npmjs.com/package/n_) for a version of the REPL that includes Lo-Dash by default.
