gomoob / backbone.isomorphic Goto Github PK

Its possible that the node.js DOM implementations we are using are too heavy because they contains a lot of functionalities which are not needed to only render Backbone and Marionette views server side (events, HTML5 specs, etc...).

We should implement a benchmark to compare a backbone.isormorphic implementation based on a node.js or io.js server with other implementations :

• backbone.isomorphic vs Classical PHP
• backbone.isomorphic vs React
• backbone.isomorphic vs Backbone + Rendr

One of the purpose of isomorphism is to allow an application to be crawled by search engines. We should implement several SEO samples and document best practices for this.

Several server side web developers use PHP today, so Node.js is not always something they want to use.

We should implement a PHP + V8JS sample too.

Useful links for this :

• https://github.com/preillyme/v8js
• https://github.com/reactjs/react-php-v8js

Implement a server side rendering sample which retrieves data from a database, because the sample should be light we could do it using one of those DB / libraries :

• http://www.tingodb.com
• https://github.com/louischatriot/nedb
• https://github.com/mapbox/node-sqlite3
• https://github.com/creationix/node-persistence

The samples are based on domino by default, but jsdom can also be enabled. We should document how to use several DOM implementations.
