    <p>a newbe question: I've downloaded the backbone boilerplate from <a href="https://github.com/david0178418/BackboneJS-AMD-Boilerplate" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/david0178418/BackboneJS-AMD-Boilerplate</a> it uses require.js and I wonder about the code navigation during development.</p> <p>Here is my question: let's say I have 2 views one extend the other like so:</p> <p>View 1:</p> <pre><code>define([ 'underscoreLoader', 'backboneLoader', 'text!templates/main.html' ], function (_, Backbone, MainTemplate) { "use strict"; return Backbone.View.extend({ template:_.template(MainTemplate), initialize:function () { this.render(); }, log:function(msg){ console.log(msg); }, render:function () { this.$el.append(this.template({})); return this; } }); } ); </code></pre> <p>View 2:</p> <pre><code>define([ 'underscoreLoader', 'backboneLoader', 'text!templates/other.html', 'views/main-view' ], function (_, Backbone, MainTemplate,MainView) { "use strict"; // how would you navigate to MainView (main-view.js) return MainView.extend({ template:_.template(MainTemplate), initialize:function () { this.render(); }, render:function () { this.log("my message"); this.$el.append(this.template({})); return this; } }); } ); </code></pre> <p>Now when I develop (I use IntelliJ) I would like to middle click <strong>MainView</strong> on the extended view and navigate to the code without having to browse the project tree.</p> <p>Is that possible using this boilerplate? is there a better approach or a better boilerplate?</p>

    1. CO_Is that possible using this boilerplate?_</br> I haven't used IntelliJ but this sounds highly unlikely as RequireJS decouples your application and the "MainView" variable could be anything from a static analysis point of view. And only at runtime is this pointing to the actual MainView. </br> _is there a better approach or a better boilerplate?_</br> Don't use RequireJS if you want IntelliJ.

    2. COThanks for the reply, Since code navigation is not limited to a certain IDE and is a require feature during development phase, I would really like to find a solution, meaning :keeping the files separated and still have a reference to the code.

    3. COJavascript, at least for me, is a complete paradigm shift when it comes to development tools. I use just Notepad++. There is no autocomplete, no automatic error highlighting, no refactoring helpers and other such goodies I was used to when working with strongly typed languages such as C#. The sooner you realize this the better in my opinion :).

Querying!

 
Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
