Clientside code doesn’t have to be an ugly clut­tered mess. Build­ing clean, sane, main­tain­able client-side appli­ca­tions is indeed pos­si­ble. We’ll talk a bit about Com­monJS on the client, prop­erly abstract­ing a model layer, the DOM as a dumb view layer, shar­ing code between client/server and other tech­niques for avoid­ing insan­ity like auto­mated sta­tic code analysis.

Hen­rik Joreteg is a part­ner and lead JS devel­oper at &yet (http://andyet.net), a bou­tique web soft­ware com­pany in Rich­land, WA. Joreteg is a mem­ber of a grow­ing group of javascript devel­op­ers who are blaz­ing the trail of real­time and single-page web appli­ca­tion devel­op­ment and server-side javascript. Let’s put it this way: the dude can­not shut up about node.js, back­bone, and socket.io.

Joreteg is the pri­mary devel­oper for &bang (http://andbang.com) and has writ­ten a slew of single-page real-time web apps using a num­ber of tech­nolo­gies. He recently spoke at Node­Conf and KRT­Conf and was a tech­ni­cal reviewer for O’Reilly’s JavaScript Web Appli­ca­tions. He is the author of the pop­u­lar open source javascript tem­plat­ing solu­tion, iCanHaz.js and as an early adopter of Backbone.js wrote sev­eral defin­i­tive blog­posts on the subject.
