If you want to build your site's frontend with the single-page application (SPA) model, this hands-on book shows you how to get the job done with Backbone.js. You'll learn how to create structured JavaScript applications, using Backbone's own flavor of model-view-controller (MVC) architecture.

Start with the basics of MVC, SPA, and Backbone, then get your hands dirty building sample applications-a simple Todo list app, a RESTful book library app, and a modular app with Backbone and RequireJS. Author Addy Osmani, an engineer for Google's Chrome team, also demonstrates advanced uses of the framework.

Write code that can be easily read, structured, and extended
Work with the Backbone.Marionette and Thorax extension frameworks
Solve common problems you'll encounter when using Backbone.js

Paginate data for your Collections with the Backbone.Paginator plugin
Bootstrap a new Backbone.js application with boilerplate code
