##TodoMVC - A common demo application for popular JavaScript MVC frameworks (0.25)

##Introduction

Developers these days are spoiled with choice when it comes to selecting an MVC framework for structuring and organizing JavaScript web apps. Backbone, Spine, Ember.js (SproutCore 2.0), JavaScriptMVC... the list of new and stable solutions goes on and on, but just how do you decide on which to use in a sea of so many options?

To help solve this problem, I created TodoMVC - a project which offers the same Todo application implemented using MVC concepts in most of the popular JavaScript MVC frameworks of today. Solutions look and feel the same, have a common feature set, and make it easy for you to compare the syntax and structure of different frameworks, so you can select the one you feel the most comfortable with.

####Todo apps are included for:

• Backbone.js
• Ember.js (SproutCore 2.0)
• Spine.js
• JavaScriptMVC
• Sammy.js
• YUILibrary
• KnockoutJS (MVVM)
• AngularJS
• Broke.js
• Fidel.js
• ExtJS

A jQuery-only version of the application is also included so you can easily see how the app can be implemented with and without a structural pattern like MVC. A modularized Backbone.js example using AMD is also now available if you pull the latest version.
