If you’re looking for an ultra lightweight framework for building JavaScript web applications, look no further!
Spine is the lightweight framework you’ve been looking for.
Although it may look like other frameworks, such as Backbone, it has a different approach.
Spine is tiny, the library comes in at around 500 lines of JavaScript, that’s about 2K minified & compressed. However, it’s not about size, it’s how you use it, and Spine certainly packs a punch!
This is Spine:
- Class library with real prototypal inheritance.
- Lightweight controller implementation, based on Backbone’s API.
- Full model layer and ORM.
- Ajax and HTML5 Local Storage adapters baked in.
- Asynchronous server communication.
- Works in all major browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, IE >= 7).
- Simple and lightweight.
- Thorough documentation.
