Backbone is an elegant library but I think its popularity and ecosystem were on a decline even before Walmart -- which was one of the biggest corporate contributors (e.g. Thorax [0]) -- did a complete overhaul in 2016 to React [1] [0] https://github.com/walmartlabs/thorax https://github.com/walmartlabs/thorax [1] https://medium.com/walmartlabs/publish-react-native-bundles-over-the-air-with-the-first-electrode-rn-release-3780edb387ba https://medium.com/walmartlabs/publish-react-native-bundles-...
- diggan 9y agoNo, Backbone is a collection of things and closer to a framework rather than a library, like React. Backbone has Models, Collections, a Router, History, Sync, View and Utilities.
