Marionette Development Team is announcing that Marionette with version number 2.4.2 is already available to download.

What is Marionette ?

Marionette is A complex JavaScript framework for building powerful Web-based products . Marionette was built on top of the Backbone.js library, a JavaScript library adding MVC principles to JavaScript. Using these MVC principles, Marionette adds support for features usually provided by more advanced programming languages like Ruby, PHP or Python.The framework is not a framework per se, but a collection of useful Backbone.js packages. This is changelog for Marionette version 2.4.2 :

• You can now set a filter method on a CollectionView or CompositeView to filter what views are show. This is useful for when you are displaying a list that a user can filter.
• Add the reorderOnSort option to CollectionView and CompositeView to use jQuery to move child nodes around without having to re-render the entire tree. This is a massive perf boost and is an easy win if you are sorting your collections.
• The CollectionView now has a viewComparator, to enable custom sorting on a per view basis regardless of what how your backing collection is sorted.
• Refactor sort param lookup to use Marionette.getOption.
