This is a todo app built using BackboneDiorama. This isn't quite a full TodoMVC app as specified by their site (yet!), but it should help you get started with Diorama.

The app is running on github pages:

http://adammulligan.github.io/TodoMVC/

BackboneDiorama is everything you need to build client-side web applications. Optimised for developer happiness, it builds on the components of Backbone.js and aims to be the easiest and the fastest way to build for the browser.

• diorama new projectName builds you a new project with:
  • Logical project structure for Backbone components
  • Coffeescript concatenation and compilation setup
  • Backbone.js+deps and Handlebars templating included and ready for use
• diorama generate <lots-of-stuff> - Rails-style code generators which provide convention and structure to your projects, assist you with proven patterns and allow you to rapidly prototype. Run diorama generate for the full list.
• Additional lightweight libraries to plug the gaps in Backbone.js:
  • Backbone.Diorama.ManagedRegion - Memory managed view switching.
  • Backbone.Diorama.Controller - Easy switching between states in your application.
  • Backbone.Diorama.NestingView - Nest Backbone.Views inside each other.
• New to Backbone.js? The built in conventions and patterns mean there's no easier way to get started.
• Written entirely in and for Coffeescript, for clarity and elegance of code.

The entry point to the application is through the TasksController, which is in src/controllers/tasks_controller.coffee. Every object has been generated using diorama generate, then adapted.

This deviates from the TodoMVC spec a fair bit, mostly in the interests of getting a first version up and running. Longer term, we're aiming to get it fully compliant.

You will need backbone-diorama installed on your machine:

npm install -g backbone-diorama

This gives you the diorama command. Use diorama compile watch (in the project directory) to auto-compile your coffeescripts to js/application.js. Then, open index.html to start the app.

Check the project homepage for more setup details.
