Backbone.js todos vs knockout.js todos

We couldn’t find any files to show.

@ibjhb: I re-did the gist with the html and javascript, all comments removed. https://gist.github.com/2285747
backbone: 253 lines of code
knockout: 111 lines of code

I am the biggest fan of knockout, but you have to keep as many line-brakes in knockout example as you do in the backbone one, to be 100% fair.

In line brakes?

I mean that the knockout example code seems more dense linebreak-wise (empty lines) in comparison to the backbone.

Hmm.. Guess I'm not seeing that. I know in the gist I made I think I was pretty fair with line breaks, and removing all the comments: https://gist.github.com/2285747

all I was saying is that you will get quite different numbers if you 1. - remove all blank lines, 2. count what's left. Now you can see it here: https://gist.github.com/2589644 which is based on your revised example without comments (https://gist.github.com/2285747). See, now it's 189 vs 103. Not even twice as big.

Ah, perfect! I didn't think about stripping out the whitespace, thinking it was needed for readability of the comparison. Yours is definitely a better comparison.
