About
Backbone.js is a JavaScript framework that adds structure to web applications by implementing the MVC pattern.
It offers models with key-value binding and custom events, collections with a rich API of enumerable functions, views with declarative event handling, routers for URL routing, and native support for syncing with RESTful JSON interfaces via a very small (~8 KB) core.
Knockout is a JavaScript MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) library that helps developers create rich, desktop-like user interfaces with JavaScript and
HTML.
It features declarative bindings between data and UI, observable properties with automatic dependency tracking, computed observables, a built-in templating system, and efficient incremental DOM updates.
