Backbone.js is really cool sounding, but is there a really easy way to add persistence? (CouchDB/MongoDB/something else?)

  It's meant to "bake your own" like so: * expose your data via REST * configure your models tot the urls where to sync data /users , /posts/1 etc.

  Yes ... we persist to PostgreSQL/Solr, but others using Backbone sync their models to MySQL, CouchDB, MongoDB, and Redis (that I've heard of).

  I switched Midgard Create, our CMS UI to use it instead of our custom persistence system. Cleaned the code a lot, and opened quite a few new possibilities. Here is the client end: https://github.com/bergie/midgardmvc_ui_create/blob/master/static/js/objectmanager.js https://github.com/bergie/midgardmvc_ui_create/blob/master/s... And the server end: https://github.com/bergie/midgardmvc_ui_create/blob/master/controllers/backbone.php https://github.com/bergie/midgardmvc_ui_create/blob/master/c... ...and the concept explained: http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/using_rdfa_to_make_a_web_page_editable/ http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/using_rdfa_to_make_a_web_page_edit...
