Hello,

I've noticed that the example YUI implementation at http://todomvc.com/ uses the following to segregate and load the components of the app:



...and then within each component/module they also do this:


I have two questions:

1) is this a good pattern?
I ask because I'm building a rather large app that's comprised of several models, lists, views, and I like the separation that this provides, but I'm a bit worried about adding all the js calls to the request traffic.

2) is it necessary to define the "requires" list in both places? If not, where is the best place to define the list?

Thanks!!

Thanks John!

1) I haven't worked with node yet, but this might be a good opportunity to get my feet wet.

2) That's the direction I was leaning, but as I understood it, Eric Ferraiuolo worked with Addy Osmani to create the todomvc yui example, and they've got it defined in both places, hence the confusion.

Thanks again!!!

One nice thing about the request calls to get templates and such is that they can be cached
