Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment!

Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
What role does the Model play in Backbone?	Models instantiates new objects and business logic functions belong here
How do Backbone Views compare to Rails controllers?	They have very similar roles - they determine how to respond to user requests/events
How do Backbone Events work in comparison to DOM events?	I don't know the difference
What do you think of Backbone in comparison to raw JavaScript & jQuery?	Need more practice and knowledge - been trying to figure out major bug in the last few days and just discovered I have been dealing with "zombie" views
Do you have any recommendations on how we could improve this project for the next cohort?	Do not assign this project till views has been fully covered in class - have a warning on the optionals cause it can lead to topics well beyond the scope of this project
