Backbone.View Page Transitions in Backbone

An easy and effective way to implement page transitions into any Backbone.js application. Its been tested with Thorax by extending Thorax.View and tested with Marionette with various ways to implement it. There are also many other various attempts at animations/transitions with marionette that can be found on its issues page.

This originated from an idea and quest for a clean way to create a simple yet reusable animated backbone view. I found an excellent post by Mike Fowler titled Page Transitions in Backbone that provided a large part of the core and concept.

A quick overview of the node.js streams interface with basic examples.

This is based on @brycebaril's presentation, Node.js Streams2 Demystified

Overview

Streams are a first-class construct in Node.js for handling data.

Think of them as as lazy evaluation applied to data.
