browserify - Browser-side require() the node.js way.
browserify should probably be npm. npm is the package manager and browserify is the build tool.
I would reword this to
npm - when built with browserify, you can require() the node.js way in browser.

How about this

Browserify lets you require('modules') in the browser by bundling up all of your dependencies.

Copy from http://browserify.org

Sure. I'm not worried about the wording but the point is npm should be the package manager 😄

Sorry @huei90 , I meant the name of package manager should be npm because browserify is just a build tool for packages that are commonJS style. Most packages on npm are commonJS style so you could relate them.

Or even better, I think browserify should be under category "Loaders" because its a tool to bundle commonJS modules (similar to webpack which is already under the category). Then add npm under category "Package Managers" because npm is a package manager of JavaScript (including browser-side). There are many browser-side packages (which are not even commonJS style) such as angular.js
