Backbone Events: Adding Views to the DOM

Read Original

This technical article discusses the challenge of detecting when a Backbone.js view is added to or removed from the DOM. It examines potential solutions, including using the livequery jQuery plugin (and its AMD integration) and firing custom events from the view's render method. The author proposes creating a base View class that dispatches custom 'addedToDOM' and 'removedFromDOM' events.
