The phrase - "Backbone is dead" ... How to understand it in practice?

Question

JavaScript

Backbone is dead...
Is it like "rock and roll is dead"? or more serious ;)
I sincerely like this library/framework. Is it worth adding it to the course for children ... Not for students, but for children (grades 9 - 10) ... I liked the structure. Everything is on the shelves and accessible without unnecessary abstractions.
The course is so eclectic. Moves, blinks and moderately buggy.
Threat The main question is probably this - does not the backbone teach "bad"?

Answer 1

I would not give children react angular ember and others.
on php, .net, java... if you strongly pull to the side, then ruby, python.
js is generally stupid to learn now if you don’t use it for work. js will certainly take over the world, but not immediately

Answer 2

backbone teaches mvc how it is.
I think for the basics it can be recommended.
"Backbon is dead" - This is due to the fact that the author himself stopped making commits to his creation.
As for the view part and the main application, I advise you to look in the direction of marionnetejs, the guys there have recently released version 3.

In fact, the author is currently on a trip to America, you can follow him on his instagram
