Backbone.dualstorage
A Backbone.js sync adapter that provides dual storage with localStorage caching and REST server synchronization.
What is Backbone.dualstorage?
Backbone.dualStorage is a drop-in replacement for Backbone.Sync that adds offline capabilities to Backbone.js applications. It automatically caches models and collections in localStorage while synchronizing with a remote REST server, enabling seamless data operations both online and offline. It solves the problem of maintaining data persistence and handling conflict resolution when network connectivity is unreliable.
Backbone.js developers building web applications that need to function reliably without a constant internet connection, such as mobile apps, progressive web apps, or tools used in areas with intermittent connectivity. It is also suitable for developers seeking to enhance existing Backbone applications with offline data caching and synchronization.
Developers choose Backbone.dualStorage because it integrates transparently as a sync adapter without requiring major code changes, offering automatic dirty tracking and conflict resolution. Its unique selling point is the dual storage system that provides flexible control over local and remote operations, with configurable offline detection and custom parsing for server data before local caching.
