end-dash

Not really ... just thought that it had a neat API, and was nicely implemented: https://github.com/Amicus/end-dash/tree/master/lib There a bunch of two-way-binding plugins for Backbone, if that sort of thing is your cup of tea — and some of them are really well done. Apart from EndDash, some of my favorites are: Stickit: http://nytimes.github.io/backbone.stickit/ Rivets.js: http://rivetsjs.com component/reactive: https://github.com/component/reactive

Agreed, thanks for the feedback, and, after having worked with end-dash I've come to a lot of the same conclusions you just made. The dashes were initially just to shorten the common: <div class="thing" data-text="thing"></div> to <div class="thing-"></div> Using dashes for polymorphic attributes was a bad idea, and is being removed, the data-each was recently added to replace a dashed syntax for collections. We're adding interpolated variables, so that the dash syntax will only be used for scoping. > Not only that, but check out something like ianstormtaylor/get[2] to see how easy it could be to add support for backbone-like models alongside regular properties and terser, single-method models. https://github.com/Amicus/end-dash/blob/master/lib/util.js#L... This does exactly that. Thanks, from Amicus
