The musings of an ASP.NET Developer from Canada's We(s)t Coast

Browser based JavaScript code is all about manipulating the browser’s DOM. 

Up until a few years ago, at DNN Corp we had primarily been using jQuery to do that manipulation.  Don’t get me wrong jQuery is an awesome framework, but jQuery directly manipulates the DOM  -  there is no concept of working with models/objects in jQuery – i.e. separating your presentation aspects from your other logic.

In the first part of this blog series on Knockout.js, I introduced the MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) nature of the framework. In this second post I will show how Knockout’s data-binding works.
