Maintainable Javascript Applications

Classroom

What You’ll Learn

This class introduces Backbone.js as a way to organize your code and maintain your application under an MVC framework. We'll also cover Require.js as a way to modularize your code.

We'll cover:

The Javascript journey at Skillshare – What we've learned.
Design Patterns in Javascript.
Getting up-and-running with Backbone.js.
Organizing your code-base with Require.js.
How it all fits together.

This class is targeted at:

JS Engineers, looking to clean-up and maintain their code-base.
JS Engineers, currently only using jQuery and are generally looking to broaden their skills.
YUI Engineers, interested in learning about Backbone as an alternative.
Back-end Engineers, interested in broadening their skills to the front-end.

Intermediate Level

A good knowledge of Javascript, as we won't be covering the language itself in detail. Experience with OOP/MVC will be of benefit but not essential.
