About the Backbone.js Group
A group for discussions related to the planning of and development with the Backbone JavaScript framework and Drupal.
Drupal needs robust integration with a JavaScript framework. The Age of Web Applications is upon us, and jQuery is not enough.
This group is focused on the planning, building and development with the Backbone Module for Drupal. More general JavaScript questions will be best served in the JavaScript group, but all questions related to Backbone vs. other client side frameworks, client-side templating libraries, etc. are more than welcome!
Drupal Backbone Resources
This page is meant to be a community-currated collection of resources for developers looking to do more with Drupal and Backbone. For the "official" list of resources, check out the Drupal Backbone developer documentation page, as well as those below (there will be significant overlap).
Please contribute your own resources for working with Backbone, Drupal and Backbone, Drupal REST, etc.
