Learning the best practices and design patterns will help you avoid these problems and allow you to ensure that the best standards are followed.

Backbone.js Patterns and Best Practices is packed with examples that will help you work with Backbone.js components. It also gives solutions to common problems faced by developers. It gives a complete overview of plugin development, large scale application architecture, and unit testing as well.

Starting with a discussion of why reducing boilerplate in your JavaScript code is essential, Backbone.js Patterns and Best Practices explains how to enforce reusability in your code by creating plugins and mixins. You will learn about patterns and best practices for Backbone views, models, collections, routers, and events.

You will discover solutions to common problems that developers face through simple examples, and delve into the best open source plugins available to solve these problems when they arise. This book is an excellent collection of design and implementation patterns that will help you structure and develop complex Backbone.js applications easily.

Acknowledgments

Writing such a book is quite hard, especially when you are busy managing the operations and technical team at your own startup. I would like to thank my business partner, Sandip Saha, who shared the workload so that I could spend more time completing this book. Special thanks to my senior, Saikat Sengupta, who did all the editing and proofreading for each chapterthe whole journey wouldn't have been this smooth without his help.

Writing this book would never have been possible without the help of the Backbone community who have contributed to all the technologies that I have used in this book. I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the forums, tutorials, and blog posts for all the discussions, ideas, and feedback that shaped this book. I would like to thank the technical reviewers who provided immensely useful feedback that helped me enrich the content of this book. I am very much thankful to Sageer Parkar, the project coordinator of this book, for his cooperation and assistance.

I want to thank my brother, my closest friends Subhradip, Sudipta, Priyendra, Suramya, Arup, Payel, and the entire Innofied team for all their support. Finally, a special thank you to my lovely wife for the moral support and the amazing cover page photo.

About the Reviewers

Marc D. Bodley is a passionate user experience engineer and a jack-of-all-trades developer, with over 8 years experience with JavaScript and frontend technology. He is excited to see JavaScript being adopted as more of a mainstream development language and not just an accessory to development. He is equally excited to see the structure and thought process of more conventional, strongly typed languages being applied to JavaScript, to bring order to what is potentially a large and disorganized JS-driven code base. He has worked on large- and small-scale applications for a range of organizations, from Belk.com to start-up style data-heavy applications. He continues to look for, learn ,and enforce JavaScript and programming practices, and was grateful to be a contributor to this effort.

Florian Bruniaux is a French student of the University of Technology of Troyes (UTT), in the IT and Information Systems department. He is passionate about new technology, particularly process optimization and software development.

He specializes in frontend and client-side development, and has worked for various companies such as Aylan (a French startup), Oxylane, and EDF where he participated in IT projects such as server monitoring systems, cross-browsers, or multidevice app conception and development.

I would like to thank Steve Burghgraeve, IT engineer at Oxylane, and Aurlien Bnel, teacher-researcher and lecturer in Computer Science at UTT, for their help in my different projects and all the knowledge they've transferred to me.

Philippe Charrire is a bid manager at Steria in France. At night, he is an open source developer advocate at Golo project (http://golo-lang.org/) and a Backbone enthusiast. He wrote a small open source book in French about Backbone.js (https://github.com/k33g/backbone.en.douceur/). He's also an occasional speaker on Backbone.js and mobile technologies. He focuses primarily on open web technologies (front- and server-side).

Ezekiel Chentnik has over 8 years experience in frontend engineering and JavaScript development. He is a JavaScript whiz kid and whatever the challenge is, he takes it. He is passionate about his work and is constantly pushing the limit. His recent projects include some of his favorite JavaScript libraries: Zepto.js, Backbone.js, Underscore.js, Marionette.js, and Modernizr.js. Learn more about Ezekiel at http://ezekielchentnik.com.

Lorenzo Pisani is a software engineer with over a decade of experience developing applications with PHP, MySQL, and JavaScript. As a huge advocate of open source software, he publishes just about everything he builds outside of work to his GitHub profile (https://github.com/Zeelot) for others to use and learn from.
