Richard, *angularAMD* is a wrapper around mechanism described in the ify article but uses RequireJS instead of $script.js to perform the actual loading. Take a look at this Gist <http://bl.ocks.org/marcoslin/df4b741e92b2829eeae8> and compare it to the post and you should see that complexity of caching of providers and loading of controller is abstracted away. A unique feature of angularAMD is to perform on-demand loading of existing module via a RequireJS plugin called *ngload*. In the angularAMD <http://marcoslin.github.io/angularAMD/> sample website, the Picture tab loads ui-bootstrap <http://angular-ui.github.io/bootstrap/> package only when that tab is selected.
As an open source package, users raises issues and bugs that make it a more stable implementation. Take a look at the latest release note with different bugs that was raised and fixed: https://github.com/marcoslin/angularAMD/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#011-2014-05-28 Finally, there is also sample code in the repo that show you how you can perform unit and e2e testing for a RequireJS module coded for AngularJS. Having said that, this is not a framework for people just staring with AngularJS as you would also need to understand how RequireJS works in order to get everything up and running correctly.
