Modules are served from _endpoint servers_. Endpoints include `github:`, `npm:` and `cdnjs:`, and anyone can submit a new endpoint, provided it meets [certain requirements](https://github.com/jspm/registry/wiki/Endpoint-Conventions).

When requesting a module such as `github:twbs/bootstrap@3.0/js/bootstrap.js`, this corresponds to the URL

`https://github.jspm.io/twbs/bootstrap@3.0/js/bootstrap.js` and the **GitHub endpoint**, returns the associated code.
|

If I want to load Twitter Bootstrap directly from the Github endpoint, I would write the following:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```javascript
|
|
||||||
System.import('github:twbs/bootstrap@3.0/js/bootstrap');
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The loader then sends a request to the URL `https://github.jspm.io/twbs/bootstrap@3.0/js/bootstrap.js` and the **Github endpoint server**, returns the associated code.

Further examples of jspm package.json files for common packages can be found in the [package overrides](https://github.com/jspm/registry/tree/master/package-overrides) section of the registry. Pull requests are encouraged.

### Testing Package Overrides
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Package overrides may take some testing to get exactly the right configuration. The [jspm CLI](https://github.com/jspm/jspm-cli) provides an option to specify the package override for testing in this way.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Simply add the `-o` option to an install to set the package override:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
jspm install github:twbs/bootstrap -o "{ main: 'js/bootstrap', shim: { 'js/bootstrap': ['jquery'] } }"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once tested the exact override can then be included in the [jspm Registry](https://github.com/jspm/registry) with a pull request.
