Backbone Prototype.js is an adapter for using Backbone with the Prototype.js framework. The basic idea behind it is to use a jQuery-like API as a wrapper to Prototype calls to allow us to seamlessly use Backbone.js without changing its internals.

Idea, documentation, code structure and implementation are simply a modified version of the excelent mootools adapter (https://github.com/inkling/backbone-mootools).

To use backbone-prototypejs download prototype_adapter.js and embed it before the backbone.js include.

For example:

<script src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/prototypejs-1.7.js>
<script src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/backbone.js"></script>
<script src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/prototype_adapter.js"></script>

This adapter has been tested with the lastest stable prototypejs release (1.7).

This library is designed to be used with the backbone project, which is linked to in a submodule. All the details on backbone and its license can be found at http://documentcloud.github.com/backbone.
