What it does:

• vim helpfile generated from backbonejs.org (:h backbone)

• snipmates snippets. When filetype is set to javascript, type view<tab>, model<tab> or router<tab>

What is should do:

• vim templates on BufNewFile. Should this be node-based with mustache like templates, and intelligently parse current filepath / app structure to know which template it should use (eg. opening a new file with something like */models/* or a filename with model in it should trigger the model template.

• Ease navigation of the Backbone directory structure. eg. easy jumping between files, like model to test, view to template, template to helper, etc.

• Enhanced syntax highlighting, should this be useful

• Scripts wrapper around the scripts in the script directory of the Backbone app. A limited amount of completion should be supported

• Possibly integration and wrappers to build tool

• should have special logic / behaviour if a spec/ or test/ directory is detected.

• Commands to generate things. a :Bgenerate model Foo should create a foo controller and edits app/model/foo.js, optionally would be nice to have the matching test generated app/test/foo.js with basic assertions.
