In theory they are different, but in reality people use backbone because they think it will help them reduce the bloat and mess in their code, when in fact backbone will not help with that.
- vidarh 14y agoReally? My experience is that it does. So is the experience of many others. Data binding was far down the list of issues I've needed to fix in the places where I've experimented with Backbone. For data binding there's tons of alternatives that co-exists nicely with Backbone, including Knockout via Knockback, or Rivets, or any number of modules written specifically to work with Backbone - the choice of data-binding mechanism is orthogonal to the choice of using Backbone or not.
