# Modern Backbone Starter-kit

[![Gitter](http://img.shields.io/badge/chat-online-brightgreen.svg?style=flat)](https://gitter.im/sabarasaba/modern-backbone-starterkit)

This project provides a prepared development environment for modern backbone
development. ES6, Jest, HMR, css-next, eslint; all ready for you to use.

### Getting Started

Just [clone](github-windows://openRepo/https://github.com/sabarasaba/modern-backbone-starterkit) or [fork](https://github.com/sabarasaba/modern-backbone-starterkit/fork) the repo and start hacking:

```shell
$ git clone https://github.com/sabarasaba/modern-backbone-starterkit.git AwesomeApp && cd $_
$ yarn install
$ cp .env.example .env
```

### Development
Uses webpack-dev-server with HMR to serve your app:

```shell
$ yarn dev
```

### Note on css
This project uses postcss with a few plugins in order to provide a modern approach
to dealing with css. It runs autoprefixer by default, supports nested classes,
imports and everything else that [css-next](http://cssnext.io/) has to offer.

### Production build
This will build a minified version of the app and will output everything into
the `public/` folder:

```shell
$ yarn build
```

If you wanna serve the production app you can do so by running:

```shell
$ yarn start
```

### How to run tests

You can easily run the unit tests by doing:

```shell
$ yarn test
```

Or check your code coverage with:

```shell
$ yarn coverage
```

### Linter
Currently using airbnb's presets, you can run it with:

```shell
$ yarn lint
```

### How to Update

You can always fetch and merge the recent changes from this repo back into
your own project:

```shell
$ git checkout master
$ git fetch upstream
$ git merge upstream/master
$ npm install
```

### A Note on ES Classes
ES2015 Classes do *not* work well with Backbone or Marionette at time of writing. See https://github.com/jashkenas/backbone/issues/3560. Use Backbone's built in extend functions to get around this for the time being.
