A very (very) simple counter app using backbone.js

The purpose of this application was to model something very simple in Backbone.js, to get a better understanding of how it works. The app displays a list of counters, allowing you to add a new counter to the page, or remove and existing counter. Each counter keeps track of it's count, and the user can increment and decrement the count. That's pretty much it :)

This application was built using Backbone.js, with Underscore.js templates. The templates (and for that matter, all view aspects) are stored in the index.html file. A Backbone router was used, but was not necessary, and sends all requests to a no-op function. Event interaction is handled by the views, which directly manipulate the counter model(s). The model data is stored in memory, not using a backend server or local storage. An app-view was created to manage creating and deleting the individual counter views.

A running version of this application is hosted on GitHub here:

You can also clone the project, and host the index.html file locally. All JavaScript files are included and loaded within the index file.
