For years, Web developers have been working with JavaScript frameworks, such as jQuery, MooTools, and Prototype.js / Scriptaculous. We all love how easy it is to create animations, effects, select and manipulate DOM elements, make Ajax calls, and so on. However, tasks that seem trivial become repetitive and can turn into maintenance nightmares later on. I will show you a better way for creating highly-engaging, highly-interactive, and maintainable Web applications by using the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) pattern in JavaScript. This pattern is not just for Silverlight and WPF developers. It is made possible for client-side JavaScript by Knockout.js!
