Pages is an application framework built on top of Backbone

It was created for several reasons:

• Enable 3rd parties to provide plugins to replace default behavior
• Provide enhanced support for events
• Encapsulate DRY code
• Allow modular routers to be downloaded only when associated routes are hit

Although many common plugin implementations will be available within this project, 3rd party contributions are welcome.

Plugins

• Content Provider: used to provide content (usually for templates)
• Template Engine: used to merge content with data
• I18N
• Module Loader: used to lazy load router code
• Object Manager: encapsulates handling of all view plugins
• View Handlers: things that respond to events that are meaningful to a view
  • Subview: allow views to contain other views
  • Model: allow views to contain models that make UI contributions
  • Collection: allow views to contain collections that make UI contributions
  • Mixin: provide additional functionality to views
