Skeletor

Skeletor is a Backbone fork.

Sekeletor adds the following changes to Backbone

• Removes the dependency on jQuery
• Replaces underscore with lodash
• Imports lodash methods individually to allow for tree-shaking
• Use the native browser API instead of lodash whereever possible
• Drops support for older browsers (including IE) and uses ES6+ language features
• Splits models, views and collections into separate modules
• Adds the possibility to returns promises for asynchronous operations

Backwards incompatible changes

• Collection.prototype.forEach no longer returns the items being iterated over. If you need that, use map instead.
• The chain method on Models has been removed.
• The inject, foldl and foldr methods on Collections has been removed. You can use reduce instead.
• Removed the sample, take, tail and initial method on Collections.
• Removed the without, reject and select methods on Collections, use filter.

Changes due to using Lodash instead of Underscore

1. Use drop instead of rest.
2. indexBy is called keyBy
3. Use invokeMap for collections instead of invoke.
4. Use includes instead of contains
5. The partition and invokeMap methods have been removed.
