Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions

Moving from jQuery

Events

// jQuery
$(document).ready(function() {
  // code
})

	#! /usr/bin/env bash

	###
	#
	# install_mysql.sh
	#
	# This script assumes your Vagrantfile has been configured to map the root of
	# your application to /vagrant and that your web root is the "public" folder
	# (Laravel standard). Standard and error output is sent to
	# /vagrant/vm_build.log during provisioning.

	/*
	Element to slide gets the following CSS:
	max-height: 0;
	opacity: 0;
	overflow: hidden;
	transition: max-height 0.4s ease 0s;
	*/

	/**
	* Like jQuery's slideDown function - uses CSS3 transitions
