Backbone.js
Backbone.js is a JavaScript library with a RESTful JSON interface and is based on the Model–view–presenter application design paradigm. Backbone is known for being lightweight, as its only hard dependency is on one JavaScript library, Underscore.js, plus jQuery for use of the full library. It is designed for developing single-page web applications, and for keeping various parts of web applications synchronized. Backbone was created by Jeremy Ashkenas, who is also known for CoffeeScript and Underscore.js.
When handling the DOM Backbone.js adopts an imperative programming style, in contrast with a declarative programming style.
Trying to provide "the minimal set of data-structuring and user interface ", leaves to the developer the choice of extensions for enhanced functionality. For example, one can use nested views with Backbone Layout Manager or model-view binding with ReSTbasis.Use
The following web applications are built with Backbone.js:
