Welcome to the Instant Backbone.js Application Development . This book will guide you through the steps of downloading and installing Backbone.js and its dependent libraries, getting a simple Hello World app running to confirm your installation, and then finally going through each of the different classifications of code so that you can build a simple contact manager. You'll even build a quick server app to persist your data.
So what is Backbone.js explains exactly what Backbone.js is for, what sort of use cases you would need for it, who uses it, and the requirements.
Installation will guide you through acquiring the dependencies of Backbone.js, which need to be installed before you can use it in your project. This section will have you download and install them and set up a simple directory structure.
Quick start building a Hello World app provides a simple Hello World message, to verify whether the installation has worked properly and our libraries are being loaded.
Top 5 features you need to know about covers the different classifications of code Backbone has to offer, including Models and collections, Views and their corresponding templates, Events, URL routing, and Persisting data to a server.
People and places you should get to know covers a good community of free resources out there that you should be aware of to take your Backbone development skills to the next level.
Backbone.js (or simply Backbone) is a frontend JavaScript framework for building data-heavy Single Page Applications ( SPAs ). You've probably heard of different framework patterns, such as Model-View-Controller ( MVC ), Model-View-Presenter ( MVP ), or even Model-View-ViewModel ( MVVM ), but Backbone follows its own special paradigm. Backbone doesn't require files to be structured in your filesystem in any sort of way, but it does have suggestions on how your project should structure code.
Backbone is most useful when your application uses a database in the backend to persist user data, and your frontend application will need to mirror a lot of this data. Assuming your data is accessible to your frontend app using a standardized format (RESTful JSON-based API over HTTP GET), and data can be persisted using the proper HTTP verbs (PUT, POST, and DELETE), working with Backbone to read and write data will be a breeze.
While running Backbone-based SPAs, your users will be interacting with data from the backend in their browser. When they interact with the application, they are doing so using Views. A View represents part of the Document Object Model ( DOM ), and is tied to a Model. When these interactions occur, they trigger Events, which update the data in the model. Backbone keeps track of these models and, when changes to data happen, it will send the data to your web server to be persisted. It also keeps track of changes to model data and can update your Views accordingly. This makes the process of updating the DOM and sending data to the server seem to be automatic. Instead of building several one-off jQuery
