Even the sample code is not congruent. The author makes excessive use of the "if you do this" or "maybe you do this", which leaves the reader questioning IF they should do the following later to learn that instead of a "maybe you could write this" it should have been "you need to write this". Also, from chapter to chapter it's as if the author remakes 70% of the overall application plot of the book but leaves you to guess what should be kept from previous chapters.There's a lack of where to put what code in which files (a new file, or existing) and where they should be in those files.I've not been able to get any of the examples to work when I write them out from the book, and many examples don't work from github.I don't recommend this book if you are looking to learn backbone, or learning to make packages. This is an "OK" book if you wish to hunt and peck for little nuggets of information. But be warned, the context is extremely hard to get right. ### ⭐⭐⭐ "Full Stack Web Development with Backbone.js" by Patrick Mulder *by B***E on November 1, 2014* Patrick Mulder's short (it runs just under 200 pages) book on Backbone.js takes you through the basics of building a full stack web application in JavaScript.Given the scope the book's coverage is broader than it is deep and it does a good job of touching onall of the basic components of putting together a fully fledged web application.My own background is as someone who has made a lot of use of JavaScript on the client side (including using frameworks such as Knockout.js) in tandem with languages like PHP or C# driving the backend logic. As such I found that this book, short as it is, gave me exactly the set of tools I need to make the transition to full blown full stack JS applications. I don't think I would recommend this to someone attempting to build their first web app. Some experience is required (this is noted in the introduction).Finally, I have to say I really appreciated the inclusion of chapter 10 on Automated Workflows covering Bower, Yeoman, RequireJS etc. These tools are all really pushing the JavaScript ecosystem in the direction of becoming a world class, professional, environment for software development. It's imperative that JS professionals are aware of, and make use of, these tools. This chapter gives just enough of a taste to get one going in the right direction. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/8822364-full-stack-web-development-with-backbone-js-scalable-application-design](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/8822364-full-stack-web-development-with-backbone-js-scalable-application-design) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
