The document discusses the construction of powerful JavaScript modules aimed at making applications more efficient and modular. It emphasizes the importance of the DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) principle, particularly in managing frontend and backend JavaScript libraries. Additionally, it highlights design goals and constraints for a field workforce management module system, advocating for the use of modern package management tools like npm.

In the application:
require('fh-wfm-camera')

function(object, ts) {
self.create(object, ts)
.then(function(object) {
Mediator
.publish('done:wfm:workorder:create:'+ ts,
object);
});
