Backlift - The Back End Service For Front End Developers

Backlift is a back end service for front end developers. Backlift wants to make building and deploying websites easier, faster and more creative. Backlift's server, templates and helper libraries support:

• Asynchronous updates: Build apps that respond immediately to user actions while data is sent the the server in the background.
• API discovery: Backlift will let you persist data without specifying the API up front. If you follow standard RESTful conventions, backlift will accept whatever data you throw at it.
• Familiar libraries: Backlift currently works with Backbone.js. We plan to integrate other javascript MVC libraries in the future.

Backlift's goals are to facilitate:

• Rapid user experience prototyping.
• Learning to write front-end javascript code, and eventually.
• Deploying production websites used by millions.

Backlift offers a full back-end-as-a-service including:
