$ bower link <name> [<local name>]

The link functionality allows developers to easily test their packages. Linking is a two-step process.

Using ‘bower link’ in a project folder will create a global link. Then, in some other package, bower link <name> will create a link in the components folder pointing to the previously created link.

This allows you to easily test a package because changes will be reflected immediately. When the link is no longer necessary, simply remove it with bower uninstall <name>.
