backbone.jsHow can I create a successful Backbone.js project?
- Begin by setting up a project folder and creating a file structure that will be easy to maintain and update.
- Set up the HTML page that will host the Backbone application. Include the necessary libraries, such as jQuery, Underscore, and Backbone.
<script src="jquery.js"></script> <script src="underscore.js"></script> <script src="backbone.js"></script>
- Create a model that will define the data structure of the application.
var User = Backbone.Model.extend({ defaults: { name: '', age: 0 } });
- Create a collection to store the models.
var Users = Backbone.Collection.extend({ model: User });
- Create a view that will render the data from the models.
var UserView = Backbone.View.extend({ tagName: 'li', render: function(){ this.$el.html( this.model.get('name') + '(' + this.model.get('age') + ')'); return this; } });
- Create a router to handle navigation and page navigation.
var AppRouter = Backbone.Router.extend({ routes: { '': 'home' }, home: function(){ // render home page } });
- Finally, create an instance of the router and start Backbone's history.
var appRouter = new AppRouter(); Backbone.history.start();
