When I using bower manager to install 'animate' package, There is an exception:
EMALFORMED Failed to read C:\Users\Frank\AppData\Local\Temp\FRANK-PC-Frank\bower\a2a424217f809672e8fe80ddeab36781-21084-Ho4ioc\bower.json
Additional error details:
Unexpected token }
I don't know why bower.cmd not modified bower.json in project. It seems to want to modify the temp bower.json(Which I can't find it,using the path provided by bower logger).
How to solve it? and Why the bower package manager is not easy to use?
