+# backbone-rails
+
+Developing javascript applications on top of rails just got faster thanks to the Rails 3.1 asset pipeline.
+Like [jquery-rails](https://github.com/indirect/jquery-rails/), this gem bundles some javascript files to make them available to your application:
+
+* [backbone](http://documentcloud.github.com/backbone)
+* [underscore](http://documentcloud.github.com/underscore)
+* [json2](https://github.com/douglascrockford/JSON-js)
+
+## How to use it
+
+Add it to your Gemfile:
+
+    gem 'backbone-rails'
+
+Require what you need in `app/assets/javascripts/application.js.coffee`:
+
+    #= require json2
+    #= require underscore
+    #= require backbone
+    
+With pure javascript, the lines would look like `app/assets/javascripts/application.js`:
+
+    //= require json2
+    //= require underscore
+    //= require backbone
+
+## Versioning
+
+The gem will follow backbone versioning.
