Javascript SHOOTOUT!
Spine.js is a simple and small MVC framework written in coffeescript and distributed as both Coffeescript and Javascript. It makes design decisions for you and implements a "full" ORM and Data Sync layer on top of the regular controller / view binding. It's based on Backbone's API, so many of it's features are similar
Spine is distributed with a command line utility to generate an application scaffolding for you, and to generate code for your Controllers and Models.
