Speaker: Jennifer M. Dodd

WordPress includes Backbone.js, a lightweight framework useful for separating data and logic from the DOM.

We’ll also look at customizing views to represent the displayed data via templates and view options, including a step-by-step tutorial using Backbone to power WordPress Widgets.
