Backbone.localStorage
A localStorage adapter for Backbone.js that replaces Backbone.sync to persist data locally in the browser.
What is Backbone.localStorage?
Backbone.localStorage is an adapter for Backbone.js that replaces the default Backbone.sync mechanism to persist data in the browser's localStorage instead of a remote server. It allows developers to store and retrieve Backbone models and collections locally, enabling offline functionality or simplifying data management without server dependencies. The adapter integrates seamlessly with Backbone's existing API, providing a lightweight solution for client-side data storage.
Backbone.js developers building client-side applications that require local data persistence, such as offline-capable apps, prototypes, or tools where server synchronization is optional or unnecessary.
Developers choose Backbone.localStorage for its simplicity and seamless integration with Backbone.js, offering a straightforward way to add local storage capabilities without overhauling existing code. Its unique selling point is the ability to toggle between localStorage and server sync using the ajaxSync flag, providing flexibility in data persistence strategies.
