Journey Through The JavaScript MVC Jungle. Advertisement When writing a Web application from scratch, it’s easy to feel like we can get by simply by relying on a DOM1 manipulation library (like jQuery2) and a handful of utility plugins.
The problem with this is that it doesn’t take long to get lost in a nested pile of jQuery callbacks and DOM elements without any real structure in place for our applications. In short, we’re stuck with spaghetti code3. Fortunately there are modern JavaScript frameworks that can assist with bringing structure and organization to our projects, improving how easily maintainable they are in the long-run. What Is MVC, Or Rather MV*?
These modern frameworks provide developers an easy path to organizing their code using variations of a pattern known as MVC4 (Model-View-Controller). Models represent the domain-specific knowledge and data in an application. JavaScript ‘MVC’ frameworks that can help us structure our code don’t always strictly follow the above pattern. Mvvm knockout vs angular. Why is Knockout.js or Angular.js slow at rendering lists. Knockout.js and Angular.js are great at many things, but rendering large lists of data is not one of them.
Below I show you why, and how to fix it. The strongest JavaScript framework/library/utility/shim in a developer’s toolbelt is their brain. There is no perfect [noun|verb|adjective].js that will will magically solve 100% of your apps features with clever engineering. These tools are built by humans. There are some good tools for solving specific problems, but one tool cannot possibly solve them all. A friend of mine was recently trying to use Knockout.js, a mvvm model-binding framework, to create a table with 1000 rows in HTML, and it was failing miserably. Here is an example plunkr of what he was trying to accomplish: Let’s look at a couple of things going on in the performance timeline.
It calls the garbage collector 6 times: With almost 300ms of that time to render: You might be thinking, “But hey, I bet Angular.js is faster!”. Use the right tool for the job.

Article views: 23,163 I started reviewing AngularJS and Knockout because I had some specific projects that I intended to use one of these for and felt the research and comparative examples might prove useful to others. I haven’t compared every aspect of the libraries, just enough to give me an idea which will be better for my specific projects (and hopefully give you a head start on your own decisions).
This is the final post in a nine post series looking at the capabilities of knockout and Angular. Top JavaScript MVC Frameworks. By Dio Synodinos on Feb 05, 2013 | As more and more logic ends up being executed in the browser, JavaScript front-end codebases grow larger and more difficult to maintain.
As a way to solve this issue developers have been turning to MVC frameworks which promise increased productivity and maintainable code. As part of the new community-driven research initiative, InfoQ is examining the adoption of such frameworks and libraries by developers. Backbone.js: Provides models with key-value binding and custom events, collections, and connects it all to your existing API over a RESTful JSON interface. AngularJS: A toolset based on extending the HTML vocabulary for your application. Please rank the following frameworks, from YOUR experience working with them, according to the value they can potentially bring (“Value Proposition”) vs. how ready they are to be used in the real world (“Adoption Readiness”).

There are already plenty of posts out there comparing AngularJS and Knockout. I have been slowly reading through all the comparisons I could find, but unfortunately I keep running into cases where the posts are too high level, miss capabilities I need, or have errors that undermine my trust in the rest of the post. The thing is, Knockout and AngularJS are attempting to solve two different problems. Here are the capabilities I need: Before I dive into either of these libraries, though, I need some assurance that they will support the browsers I need, won’t get me into an odd licensing situation, and have sizable communities maintaining them. Latest Update + Current Version as of when I added the table row. Browser Compatibility: KnockoutJS vs AngularJS. Luckily (or unluckily ?
), I keep getting opportunities to work with everything other than Angular. In my latest assignment, I have had the opportunity to work with Knockout. I have to say that I liked it and would have picked Knockout as my favorite framework if Angular did not exist. People keep asking these questions and probably there is a good reason for it. Humans hate choices. Templating.
