README.md

About

The Backbone Store is a tutorial and demonstration application for BackboneJS, a javascript framework for managing data-driven websites.

Installation

After checking out the source code, type

$ make setup all serve

This will automatically run the NPM and Bower install scripts, placing the correct libraries into the target tree, build the actual application from the original source material, and start a local server.

Requirements

The build tool relies upon GNU Make and node-js. It also uses the NoWeb Literate Programming documentation tools, and building the documentation from source requires Xelatex be installed as well.

The command 'make serve' probably only works under a fairly modern Linux, as it is dependent upon the kernel's inotify facility.

Branches

There are two major development branches for The Backbone Store.

Branch 'master' uses HTML, CSS, and Javascript.

Branch 'modern' uses HAML, Stylus, and Coffee.
