title: Is backbone.js production ready?
body: <p>I was recently hired at a startup as the front end developer.  As our product is a user admin that will be used by financial organizations, we want the app to run as much like an application as possible.  I have been tasked with finding the clientside framework.</p>
  
  <p>After researching, I have chosen backbone.js.  When I presented this choice today, I was asked some questions that I do not have the full answers for but thought you guys might.</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Is backbone.js production ready?<br>
  Is it rock solid and is there any proof?
  I will only be using models, views, and collections for this app.  My question is, how confident can I be that backbone will not just randomly fail when dealing with models. Are there any official tests I might be able to look at? What are your experiences with backbone?</p></li>
  <li><p>Is there any sort of support network in place for dealing with backbone related issues?</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Answers to either of these questions as well as any insights you have that I could present to my boss would be most appreciated!   I Really want to use backbone as I think its a perfect fit, but because its so new, I need to sell it.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance! </p>
