By its nature, working on a web application usually involves a lot of JavaScript (duh). And as any developer will tell you, it often doesn't take long for your JS code start winding through a whole heap of other elements like HTML UI speed ramps, jQuery roundabouts, and who knows what else. For complex applications a more structured approach can make life easier for everyone. Enter Backbone.js, the JavaScript framework that does exactly that. Here's what this Backbone.js online course can show you... The Backbone of Web App Development • Get to know Backbone.js and how it can help you • Code a Backbone app with an online IDE • Compose functional components in Backbone's MVC paradigm • Raise and handle Events • Implement Views to control and app • Use Models to manage application data • And much more!
