""CoffeeScript, Meet Backbone.js is a simple Backbone.js tutorial written in CoffeeScript comprised of self-explanatory "hello world" examples of increasing complexity. It was designed to provide a smoother transition from zero to the popular Todos example The bulk of this tutorial is a rewrite of the original hello-backbonejs tutorial. Backbone.js offers a lean MVC framework for organizing your Javascript application. It leads to more maintainable code by untangling the "spaghetti" of callbacks tied to different parts of the DOM and the backend server that often arises in rich client-side applications. The tutorial starts with a minimalist View object, and progressively introduces event binding/handling, Models, and Collections. Once in the tutorial, use the navigation menu in the top-right corner to view other examples. Example numbers are in order of increasing complexity. - Pascal Van Hecke

"simple set of rules and requirements that dictate how version numbers are assigned and incremented" ""For this system to work, you first need to declare a public API. This may consist of documentation or be enforced by the code itself. Regardless, it is important that this API be clear and precise. Once you identify your public API, you communicate changes to it with specific increments to your version number. Consider a version format of X.Y.Z (Major.Minor.Patch). Bug fixes not affecting the API increment the patch version, backwards compatible API additions/changes increment the minor version, and backwards incompatible API changes increment the major version. - Pascal Van Hecke

"Test-First Teaching provides a fundamental shift in the way people learn software development. Initially, it helps the student focus on learning very basic syntax, able to independently confirm when they have successfully completed an exercise. That immediate feedback is valuable for cementing knowledge. Test-first teaching also teaches an understanding of all of the arcane error messages in a low stress situation. The first thing you see, before you have written a line of code, is an error. Then you discover what you need to do to fix that error. Test-first teaching helps people intuitively understand that mistakes are a natural part of the software development process." - Pascal Van Hecke
