Bane is originally based off of tbranyen's brilliant Backbone Boilerplate. All credit for Backbone Boilerplate goes to him and the contributors to that project.

About

This is basically a more "opinionated" version of Backbone Boilerplate.

Jade is added to save time from typing out redundant markup tags. I've added my own Atomic styling microframework, which is a set of common stylings I use. I encourage you to assemble something similar that reflects your own style and swap it in!

Changes

• Jade added as the templating engine
• Underscore.string added to provide some extra string manipulation features
• Added my Atomic styling microframework (built with Sass)
• Integrated Font Custom for generating custom icon fonts.
• Build system (Grunt) customized
• Added some example code
• Distributed as a Yeoman generator
• Swapped out Jam, replaced with Bower

Issues

I have been having issues with Bower, RequireJS, and Jade. The main path as specified by the Bower Jade package's component.json (which is deprecated) is vendor/bower/jade/lib/runtime. However, to use it as an AMD module, you must instead specify the path as:

    // app/config.js
    paths: {
        // ...
        jade: 'vendor/bower/jade/runtime',
        // ...
    }
