I am building a complex web app and trying to use requirejs with backbone. I found out that backbonejs is a non AMD framework which restricts me to use requirejs out of the box.
I researched on internet and found that there are patches available to make backbone AMD compliant.
Please guide if patching this way is a no-issue setup. Will i run into any issues during the app development due to patching of core file in backbonejs?
I apologise if its a stupid question 🙂
Nope, it’s not a stupid question. We actually have done this and is working fine for us, so far 🙂
You can follow this guide on how to do it: http://kilon.org/blog/2012/08/build-backbone-apps-using-requirejs/
Don’t forget to read the chapter on unit testing it with Jasmine. Pretty nice combination all together.
